In a professional art career spanning almost 25 years Gary has become known for engaging and evocative paintings inspired not only by the beauty of the western Canadian landscape but also by an interest in how humans interact with the natural world. "Indeed to better understand our place within the natural order is arguably the most important issue of our age"
