Gary Symington - Fine Artist
Member Since: 07/22/2008
Gary has been a full-time illustrator and graphic designer for over 25 years, but his real passion has always been painting in oils on canvas. His illustration clients have included L.L. Bean, Windows magazine and McDonalds. His commercial work has been shown with the Society of Illustrators and in the Strathmore Paper Graphics Gallery. Gary received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting from Syracuse University, and studied at Sir John Cass School of Art in London, England.
After painting primarily landscapes for many years, his most recent work reflects his interest in trains, with particular attention paid to the quality of the surface textures and discolorations of metal on the engines.
Gary was raised in New Hampshire and took his first painting lesson from a well-known art teacher at age twelve. When he was thirteen he sold a painting to Academy Award winning actress Myrna Loy, who was in the area performing summer theater. When not creating artwork, he enjoys his friends and family, playing drums and training in TaeKwonDo. He is married and has two children.
