Gerald Miles

Gerald Miles, a retired engineer and technical illustrator, creates evocative paintings using watercolour, pastels, oils, and acrylics. Favouring realistic styles with visible brushwork, he prepares textured surfaces with acrylic modelling paste, employing dry brush techniques and a limited palette to achieve harmony and dynamic rhythm. His artworks, often inspired by his lifelong passion for nature and his sport diving experiences, vividly capture landscapes, active animals, and underwater scenes, radiating a profound sense of atmosphere and reverence for the natural world.
