Terry McLean (1935–2023) was a self-taught Manitoba artist known for his landscape and wildlife paintings. Born in Virden, Manitoba, he developed a passion for sketching nature while accompanying his father on a trapline. After working as a postal clerk and oil well monitor, he dedicated himself fully to art in 1975. Inspired by Clarence Tillenius, he became well known for his decorative plates and SIR Sporting Goods catalogue covers, which featured his work for over 40 years. In 1967, he painted a 46x5-foot mural commemorating Canada’s centenary. He opened an art gallery in Virden in 1990, which operated until 2017.
