Gainor Roberts

As an artist my biggest thrill is to evoke emotion. A painting is drama, it’s theater, and it inspires emotion. To have people laugh, cry, get angry, or get inspired when they look at one of my paintings is a major goal in my work. A moment in time can be stopped on a canvas. The particular way the clouds pile up on a summer day, the unique lay of a banana peel, the barest flick of light in a shadowed eye are moments that are breathtaking. The challenge is to make those moments transcendent and beautiful. After about 50 years of messing about with paint it still awes me to mix a little of this color and a little of that color, dab it onto a canvas and make a painting that can be enjoyed time and again, sometimes for years. Just as an actor needs an audience, so do I.

It is in this spirit that these paintings are offered for your enjoyment in this Cyber Gallery. Thank you for coming in, and if you like what you see drop an email to let me know if your day has been enriched.
