ANTHONY GIBBS
|
Born in Birmingham in 1951, he attended Bournville School of Art although
Anthony is primarily a self-taught artist. His first one man show
was in 1976 with six further one man exhibitions since.
His first Limited Edition print "White Tigers Ever Watchful"
was released in 1988, the largest edition of a Limited Edition print
by Solomon and Whitehead at the time and was an instant sell-out not
only in Britain, but also in the United States. He went to Kenya for
the first time in 1989. He is a committed conservationist and is a
member of several conservation charities.
Anthony Gibbs is a member of the Society of Animal Artists in New
York, winning the society's National Tour, People's Choice Award '92
- '93 and the society's "Award of Excellence" medal in 1997.
With the society his work has been exhibited all over America.
Anyone standing in front of one of Anthony’s imposing canvases cannot
but be impressed not only by the artist’s meticulous skill in creating
such wonderful images that can take up to three months to create but
also by the rapport and feeling for his subject that Anthony Gibbs
so obviously has.
