Bob Gaw Virtual Art Gallery Exhibits

Art has been more than a pastime for me; it has become my lifeblood. Eleven years ago, I discovered a talent I didn’t know I had when I decided to explore the world of art. Having never taken a formal art class before, my curiosity and eagerness to learn opened up a new realm of creativity and self-expression. Whether working with paint, pencil, or other mediums, I find peace and fulfillment in the act of creating. Born and raised as the youngest of seven on a farm in mid-Missouri, my life has been shaped by family and hard work. After a long career with a publicly owned utility company, retiring as a senior project manager for Kansas City Power and Light, I now devote myself fully to art. My wife of 50 years, Charlotte, and our three grown children, along with five grandchildren, continue to inspire and support me. My Brand "Art is a bridge—connecting me not only to my own imagination and dreams but also to others". I am drawn to unique ideas and challenging images, using my dreams as the foundation for every piece. My inspiration comes directly from the stories I tell through my creations. Each work serves as a conversation starter, a way to bring people together and share in experiences beyond words. The uniqueness of my art lies in the blending of imagination and steady practice. I continually refine my techniques to bring the visions from my dreams into reality. Through dedication and passion, I strive to create pieces that not only express my inner world but also invite others to explore theirs.
