About the Artist
Creative pursuits have long held him captive.
He can be found painting in watercolour, oil and acrylic or drawing with whatever he can find. He is a largely self-taught artist who has learnt various techniques and processes through studied research, curious exploration and good old fashioned trial and error.
Faced with the majesty of an arresting subject he works quickly in an attempt to simplify it, condense it, understand it whilst seeking to capture the feeling of fleeting light.
Many of the works are available for sale and Gordon will consider all offers of commissioned work. He currently teaches Watercolour at Atwell Art Centre and is available for tutoring either in the studio or en plein air.

Painting something in front of you that may soon disappear really puts you in the moment- it comes across in the work
