Intense and dramatic, Gary Crawford's works draw the viewer in. Layer upon layer of brilliantly contrasting colours are laid down, or thrust upon the viewer. These layers energize the work with a certain deliberate tension. And then there is the light - part of the final layering process that lifts the spirit and draws the eye to explore the depths of the work - time and time again.

Flying Figure, was influenced by acrobatics and the development of my design work into 3d figurative work. I incoperated some of the Chakras within the sculpture, such as solar plexus and heart chakra, as they illustate energy paths of the human body, well know in eastern culture such as India and within Buddhism and healing. The sculpture is 27 inches high x 16.75 wide x 19 inches in depth / approx 70 x 42 x 48 cm. Limited edition of 12 Originals. Cast in 2020. Signed, with edition number. Hand made and cast in Canada.
Porsche #9: I was developing a new portrait simply called Cap-girl, when an art patron, who had previously purchased a couple of my stone sculptures, visited my studio. A long time Porsche owner and racing fan, he said he would like to buy it, and asked if I would put the name Porsche on the cap along with his lucky number; # 9. So, in an instant, baseball-cap-girl, became Porsche #9 ―a private commission.
