Art By Gerhard Becker
About The Artist
Gerhard Becker has been practicing as an artist in the Ottawa region since 1994. The British-Columbian born artist started off his career carving fishing lures and moved on to create large wooden sculptures for public and private spaces. He continued to sculpt until he was struck by a drunk driver and seriously injured. Unable to sculpt anymore, he turned to painting and discovered a hidden passion.
He opened GB Gallery in Ottawa’s Glebe district in order to provide opportunities for local artists excluded from traditional galleries. During the few years that it was open, GB Gallery became the centre of a thriving artistic community that included many emerging artists who have since gone on to establish names for themselves throughout North America. The gallery was closed when Gerhard himself was offered representation by a New York-based agency. He moved back to Ottawa some time later to care for his young children, Wolfgang and Karl.
For Becker, art flows from the heart. His free-spirited, generous style has appealed to a wide audience. To date he has sold over 750 paintings to a diverse and international clientele.
Gerhard lives in Kemptville Ontario with his partner Billie-Joe.
