Piece description from the artist
This is one of the many traditiona;lly hand drawn and painted works I have produced. Although I now combine traditional painting methods with digital, often just digitally producing commercial artwork unless the client specifically requires a traditionally painted work. This piece was painted in inks and gouache on fine art board. Years ago I would make use of an airbrush to paint large areas such as sky and before that I would even use aerosol cans of paint but they were extremely difficult to control especially outside on a windy day.
In childhood, at home, school or art college Gerald excelled in art and related subjects. His fascination with the natural world and the universe began in those early days and has continued ever since. Before becoming a full time freelance artist he gained experience in printing and publishing and for a few years worked as a poster, graphic artist. But he always found time to take on private commissions, exhibit, and develop his painting skills and style. After another two years at art college in the early 1990's Gerald became a freelance artist, illustrator, and designer and worked for a variety of clients in publishing, marketing, and the music industry. Etcetera. Gerald is proud of everything he has done but still feels a great sense of achievement when he sees his work published and printed on a book cover, a record cover, a jigsaw puzzle Etcetera. Today Gerald combines his traditional drawing, painting, and digital skills to produce his colorful and detailed scenes. Bringing to life his visions of worlds he imagines.
