Award winning wildlife and animal artist Georgina Gibbons
Georgina took a degree in art at the Central School of Art and Design in London (now Central St. Martin’s) and spent many years working in graphic design and marketing. After a few years of doing commissions in her spare time, in 2010 Georgina decided to become a full time animal artist. She worked exclusively in high quality pastels which give both a softness and an intensity of colour and used archival quality materials.
She had a deep love of animals, having grown up with animals around her, and felt a strong empathy with them.
Georgina loved to do wildlife art, including birds and marine life, and was thrilled to win the title of BBC Wildlife Artist of the Year 2013, after winning through to the finals in 2011 and 2012. She also got two pieces through to the finals of the David Shepherd Wildlife Artist of the Year 2014 competition.
It’s frustrating that Georgina was just getting into my stride with wildlife art when she was hit with the diagnosis of incurable secondary breast cancer in the bones.
Sadly Georgina lost her battle against cancer but her Spirit remains and I thank you for taking time to look through this website and I hope you enjoy the artwork.
Very best wishes
Geoffrey Gibbons
