Europe and briefly to the United
States. Arriving back in Zimbabwe
at the beginning of 2009 Gareth
embarked on his artistic career full
time. Gareth has since exhibited
successfully in such places as the
United Kingdom, Ireland and the
United States as well as holding an
annual solo exhibition in Harare.
From these shows he has built up a
solid clientele.
Gareth is passionate about wildlife
and this passion reflects in his art. He
is delighted to be associated with the
Midlands Black Rhino Conservancy
in Kwekwe, central Zimbabwe, that
helps prevent the ever-increasing
danger that Zimbabwe’s rhinos find
themselves in. In his attempt to “give
back”, a percentage of sales will be
donated to the Conservancy. Gareth’s
artwork is also currently on the label
of the house wine at Victoria Falls
Safari Lodge where a percentage of
sales of these wines is donated to the
Victoria Falls Anti-Poaching Unit to
help protect our beautiful wildlife.
Gareth’s paintings and drawings may
take many hours and weeks, but the
combination of sketches, memories
and photographs can bring the
satisfaction of a beautiful piece of art
work in the end. It is now Gareth’s
life goal, through self-discipline and
hard work, to fine-tune his skills and
to further grow in the art industry not
just locally but on an international
basis as well.
