Gavin Larkin

“From a young age I showed a keen visual interest in the world around me, encouraged by a strong artistic flair that runs through my family. 

Following my studies in art, photography and graphic design, I pursued a long and successful career in the advertising business. The variation and creativity of visual material and conceptual ideas required in this profession has influenced my painting and photography significantly. 

Creativity runs deep, and from painting directly in nature (en plein air) to creating unique, colourful, 2-dimensional abstract pieces in the studio, is where I’m in my artistic element. 

​

I believe success is achieving a timelessness in ones work, and one in which buyers and collectors, never tire of the visual enjoyment experienced. 

​

I am a professional artist based in Cape Town and am represented by a number of art galleries in the Cape Town area. Fifty percent of my work sold in the last 2 years had been to international buyers.”
