Gerald Moore

continuing until Monday 27th June 2020.

Gerald Moore, a well known and well respected Auburn artist, has been looking back over his career and vast catalogue of work.  He is showing recently completed water colour paintings and pastels alongside some historic charcoal work
Gerald's mother was a talented painter of still-life and it was she who first taught him to paint with oils.  He can remember his artworks decorating the walls of the Auburn Primary School with chalk pictures copied from the Solvol Bird Book, Gerald attributes this as the start of his pastel career!

From high school age Gerald began entering pictures in the Clare Show, winning prizes and later judging, continuing this relationship right throughout adulthood.

Since he started painting seriously in his early thirties, Gerald has been a member of art associations including the Clare Art Group, Adelaide Art Society and Burra Art Group, where he formed working relationships with prominent artists such as Lyn Day, David Dryden, Garry Lee-Gaston and Arthur Phillips. He has enjoyed many field trips with these groups and painted much of South Australia’s spectacular scenery.

During the 1980s Gerald worked as a tutor at the Clare College of TAFE and in recent years he has enjoyed being a volunteer tutor in the University of the Third Age in Auburn.
 

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, this exhibition is shown as a virtual tour with commentary by Gerald.


All of Gerald's work is for sale. Please contact the gallery if you are interested in purchasing one of his paintings.
