Interests and Personality

BiographyI started painting in 1970 while practising as an Architect. My main inspiration is Nature and the unique landscapes and flora of Australia - the unspoilt countryside, wilderness areas, wetlands, outback deserts and seashores. My paintings not only encapsulate the essential elements, colours and features of a particular place, but also recreate the ambience and the ‘feel’ of being there. I tend to create playful, colourful and inspiring images, which are both optimistic and spiritually uplifting. My aim is to capture the spirit of the Australian continent using contemporary sensibilities. See my web www.ernie-gerzabek.com

Susuie, one of the friends listed at your site, is ill. A get well letter would do her heart good and cheer her up a bit. We live in a world that does not apriciate art. We must care for eachother. So leave a post on he board if you have time. L John TOX

Great work Ernie, I really like "Waterbirds (676)" and "Spring fever (726)", but my absolute favortie is "Low rise (685)". What a great piece.
