Welcome to Gary Bunt Artwork Page |

Gary was born in
Kent in 1957. After showing early promise in a whole range of
artistic pursuits he was offered a place at art college but instead
elected to follow a career as a professional musician. After several
years as a successful guitarist Gary turned his back on the rock and
roll lifestyle and began to paint professionally. Gary's subject
matter derives from personal memories and everyday impressions, and
each element of his paintings is presented with wit and cheerful
nostalgia. While he describes his earlier work as "safe", his
illness encouraged him to become more expressive and channel his
life experiences and emotions into his engaging images. He also
creates uplifting poetry to complement each piece of artwork. After
being diagnosed with cancer in 2001 Gary began to use his painting
as a means to help others and worked with a range of patients to
show them how art therapy could make painting a part of their own
recovery process. As he puts it: "when I'm painting I simply don't
think about anything else". This project proved immensely helpful to
many people, and Gary himself has now been free of cancer for three
years. His compassion and sense of fun both come across in his work
which is becoming increasingly popular with art collectors across
the UK. |
