Gary Raymond Pereira
Garry Raymond-Pereira is a landscape artist specialising in painting the Highlands, Wales, the Lake District and the East Anglian countryside. He is drawn to these empty spaces, spending increasingly large periods of time amongst them- bleak expanses of coastline, mountain ranges and lochs. He uses hand ground oil pigments and employs many traditional techniques. He makes his preliminary sketches on location, later working them into more refined compositions, ranging from miniatures to very large oils.
Garry completed his MA in 1998. Since then, he has been a full-time painter winning The Laing prize, The Hunters prize and the Public Eye prize. He has had many solo shows both in the UK and the US. He has also shown widely at art fairs in London, Singapore, Toronto, Dubai, Hong Kong, Spain, and USA.
