Born in Southern California, Gary Geraths finished his education at
Long Beach State College (B.F.A.) and Claremont Graduate School with a
Masters degree in Drawing and Painting.
While always loving making art Gary also became involved in exploring
the mountain and desert wilderness of the West, Canada and Alaska.
Mountaineering and rock climbing became a passion and his pencils and
sketchpad were always in his backpack. Soon his work revolved around
drawing and painting the effect of the evolving forces of nature on the
landscape.
Starting in the late 1980’s Gary taught at various
colleges in Southern California while also being involved in many
gallery and museums shows locally and internationally. While traveling
through Europe, he rekindled a love and excitement of figure drawing.
So, began the chase of drawing and painting the classic figure in oil,
pastel, pencil and charcoal.
