ALISTAIR GAYLARD

Growing up in a creative family was one way to determine whether art would be a part of my life. As far back as I can remember we would be creating some form of artistic pursuit. We would spend hours at the living room table drawing all types of characters and painterly landscapes. This was something that would lead me to furthering my path in the creative industry.

Living close to the sea, we often spent time at the beach which quickly led to a life of surfing and being in the waves. Once the bug had bit there was nothing else that seemed to matter. It was a natural high and a way to express myself that gave my life direction and helped me to develop my art in new and exciting ways.

The feeling of being in the ocean, the spirit of the waves, the wide open spaces quickly inspired the need to put paint to canvas.

My artistic pursuit is a reflection of my personal experiences and the culture that surrounds me. The influence of my family, my love of surfing and the beauty of the natural world are all evident in my work. I am grateful for the opportunities that I have had to explore my creativity and I am excited to see where my artistic journey takes me next…

Feel the Stoke!!
