Is it only after an artist's demise that their work may suddenly skyrocket in value, due to a great demand for a very limited number of original paintings and signed prints? What happens to the value of an artist's work if the artist does become well recognized during their career? Aside from growing nationwide recognition, Peter R. Gerbert is the featured artist of the Florida Wildlife Federation and has been so since 1997. His art continues to appreciate in value. Many of Peter R. Gerbert's fine art collectors consider his paintings to be an excellent investment. Some of the artist's recent highlights include:

 

Marketed internationally by Bits & Pieces, Inc.

Art exhibited at the Tampa Museum of Art.
Winner of countless art show awards.
Original paintings hang on permanent display in such locations as Disney's Celebration Hotel, the Osceola County Courthouse in Kissimmee, Florida and Bishop Lynch's new Chancellery building in St. Petersburg, Florida.

The artist's research begins...

 

"Being hired to do an original painting becomes a very enjoyable challenge for me. Working closely with my client to decide on subject matter, size, and so forth: I'll work with them through my entire design process. As long as I can keep to wild animals and birds; without having to depict anything manmade, then I'm good with it! My research takes me out into the natural world to closely observe wildlife; along with the time of year, the weather, and a study of what's growing in the particular wild place chosen for the background. Going by my pencil sketches, photography, videotape, direction of light and color balance studies, I will work and rework different designs, until we (the investor and I) decide on a particular composition.

Please watch my new film, "The Creation Process" on the Short Films page; it will give you an in-depth look at what goes into my paintings, from my start out in the wilderness, to the completion of the painting on my easel." -Peter R. Gerbert

The fine art print endorsed by the Florida Wildlife Federation"The Snail Kites of Grassy Waters," was commissioned by private collectors in West Palm Beach. Peter G's research took him out into the Grassy Waters Preserve in south Florida, to search for the rare Snail Kite with a professional canoe guide. Always being creative, the artist decided to try to capture the entire landscape with 35mm film. Panning with his camera and taking enough stills to complete a 360 circumference around the water-bound canoe; then handing the camera to Beth, the canoe guide, to be included! Using some Adobe Photoshop skills and an ingenious HTML code; the pan is animated on a brand new web page...
