Rod Tribiger was born and raised on a dairy farm in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. An early love of nature sparked an interest in exploring the wilderness, and with time that interest developed into a love of drawing.  As Rod 's command of pencil-sketching developed, he soon incorporated color into his drawings by way of pastels.  From pastels, he transitioned into acrylics, and finally into oils.  Oil paint eventually became Rod's sole choice of medium, and his command of oils quickly developed into vivid oil-paintings depicting a wide variety of subject matter.

Rod’s oil paintings have over the years, been featured and marketed in galleries across Canada and the United States. His work has also partnered with the marketing and fundraising initiatives of various organizations including Ducks Unlimited Canada, Ducks Unlimited USA, Crime Stoppers, Stars Air Ambulance, The BC Wildlife Federation, The Canadian Bible Society, the Bradford Exchange as well as numerous other localized organizations.
