Gomer Robinson
Artist | Hobbyist | Varied
Canada
I am a self-professed and self-taught student of the arts with a penchant for attempting any creative pursuit that time and resources allow. I specialize in the fantasy and fantastic arts genre but have done everything from "cheesy" landscapes to wood-carved nature spirits and have competed annually in one of Canada's largest street-painting festivals...the Imadon Street Painting Festival. I am married to a wonderful woman who writes as well, is a fantastic photographer and hand crafts jewellery with natural shaped stones as their centrepiece. Her works can be found on our website...creativeheart.ca. I also have a daughter and a stepson who are quite creative in their own right.
