Artist Description Of Their Work And/Or Studio
A deep appreciation of, and concern for, the natural world provides the inspiration for Gillian’s art practice. Much of her work highlights the interactions and relationships of animals with each other and within the environment. Pet portraits also form part of her work. From an early age drawing, observation and research have been important components of her work, and Gillian continues to work in pastels, scratchboard, oils, and watercolour. Printmaking has become an integral part of her art making repertoire over the past 10 years as she explores various print making process and techniques to discover the optimum media to complement each subject.
Artist Biography
“I began to draw from a very early age, encouraged by my family. Then, as now, my subjects were primarily the animals and nature around me. I aim to share my passion for the natural world through my art, hoping to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation for all creatures. I have had 3 solo exhibitions and participated in many group exhibitions. My works are in collections in many countries.” Gillian Baldock
