Garth has pursued his art interests using regular pencils and coloured pencils, ink, pastels, oils, acrylics and watercolour, the latter being his passion. His art subjects include landscapes, structures, people (posed and non-posed), animals and abstracts, each with its own unique challenge.
Garth spent two years in Mbarara, Uganda, teaching school at which time he kept his art alive by drawing or painting the people, places and animals he encountered.
His works have sold in Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, the U.K., Ireland, Scotland, the United States and Canada. An electronic reproduction of Garth’s works was juried and accepted in the Gaudemater Gallery, Czestochowa, Poland and the Avisen-avk Art Gallery, Denmark. One of his paintings was selected for second place for the painting category out of 750 participants worldwide.
Garth’s art can be seen at his website www.garthpalanuk.com.
Garth is the Past President of the Local Colour Art Group and currently President for the Selkirk Community Art Centre home of the Gwen Fox Gallery and a past member of the Manitoba Society of Artists. He is co-founder of “Art Rocks”, a non-profit group established for the purpose of providing an exhibition and outlet for amateur artists.
