All of Peter’s unique acrylic paintings are based on experiences gained by exploring the great outdoors, studying wildlife in remote wilderness areas. He is always particular about all aspects of the subject’s environment, including the time of year, animal relationships and indigenous plant life. Each new painting begins with the research material the artist has collected…and a vivid imagination. The closer you look at his artwork, the more detail you will see.
Peter has received numerous awards for his artwork over the years. In 2010, Peter R. Gerbert received a very special WILDLIFE ARTWORK OF THE YEAR AWARD from Audubon Florida for his painting “The Spoonbill Lagoon.” This was the first time the Audubon group recognized any artist with this distinction and the art made the cover of the Florida Naturalist magazine. Other paintings have since been featured by this group as magazine covers including “Just One Moment in Eternity” (2012), “Somewhere a Peaceable Kingdom” (2017) and “River Journey” (2022). A portion of the proceeds from Mr. Gerbert’s featured prints benefits the group’s conservation efforts. In 2020, the Coral Gables Museum instituted a six month long solo exhibition featuring forty-five of Peter R. Gerbert’s original acrylic paintings.
When Peter is not exploring Florida’s wilderness, he can be found creating original works of art in his art studio near a pristine wooded habitat in Hernando County, Florida.
