Color her world
bright...
People are a way of life for artist Geri
Wood. "I'm a people painter," she said. One look at her oil, and pastel
paintings and one can easily see that she enjoys her work and people.
-Marlin Hansen, writer
I have had
the distinct pleasure of WATCHING Geri do her magic on a
simple gourd, turning it into a beautiful work of art.
It just AMAZES me to see the diversity of design, technique
and colors that are birthed in her imagination. And NOW
I am a proud owner of one of her gourd creations! It is
a featured decoration in my home, and always draws attention
and conversation. I am so PROUD to own a Geri Gittings
original, and find delight in it each and every day! -Myrl

"Geri's motto is, the greatest thing to do in
one's life is to do something to outlive it.
"Geri is striving to do just that. Geri's talent and creativity in
so many different medias amaze me. I have become a fan and collector of
many of her pieces." -Collector
From Clients:
"Geri has
the incredible ability to work in several mediums. Her ability to
translate an image, whether from a picture or from the concept of a
client, to an oil or ceramic is marvelous." -Joanna Conde,
client
Portrait of 'Molly' commissioned by Beth Hollingworth for
husband Steve. See Molly on commissioned pieces web page:
I have seen portraits of pets that Geri has
done in the past. Her ability to capture the personality and a certain
look that Molly gives us is so special. Long after Molly is gone we will
have this wonderful portrait to treasure. Thank you Geri! -Beth
Hollingworth, client
The
following excerpt was taken from a
letter written by a client, Lory. Lory commissioned an oil portrait of
her sister, Ellie and new husband, reunited and married after 60 decades
apart. See painting on commissioned pieces page:
"...they were,
as I said, speechless. Ellie said how beautiful your work was, and so
detailed. Every line in their faces, the color of their eyes and hair;
they both marveled at it. -Lory Thomas, client
From Geri's

an art lover and a Dream Catcher artist, I am both awed and

have thoroughly enjoyed working with Geri on her website which

incredible multi-media artistic talent. Wow!" -John
