Bradley Giles
Bradley Giles is a listed fine artist and has over 30 years experience in the custom fine art, themed entertainment, interior design, museum and private residential environments. With a degree in commercial art, Bradley is for the most part, a self-taught fine artist, drawing his inspiration for his painting techniques from master painters such as John Singer Sargent, Thomas Moran, Joseph Henry Sharp, N.C. Wyeth, Howard Pyle, Arthur Mathews, Albert Bierstadt. "My genres of oil paintings range from the atmospheric, historical epic scenes of the past, to pastoral, ethereal landscapes and emotionally gripping images of environmental, social, political historical statements of our past and present...with a visionary portal to our future world landscapes. Through my previous collaborations with various historians, archaeologists, scientists and Native American tribal leaders, it is my goal to have as much concise historical interpretation in my current and future painting presentations. It is this advocacy through art, that I use that information as a portal to the historical past, present and future, to bring awareness and to educate the viewer on the need to protect and preserve existing key historical and cultural landscape sites of the natural world from the ever present specter of residential and commercial development. It is through my paintings that I can bring back to life, the multitude of colorful, dynamic and atmospheric historical sites and landscape vistas lost so long ago. The viewer can experience for a fleeting moment, with all of their senses, the awe inspiring energy of a long ago age... sites that have unfortunately become casualties of humanities relentless quest to conquer the land This, is one of the very reasons why myself, as well as many other artists of the past and present, paint these type of historical landscape scenes of the natural world, to document them for future generations, before those too are but only a fleeting memory to those living now on this Earth." Bradley has been commissioned to paint large-scale murals as well as various scenic / faux finishing projects for the Mandalay Bay, New York, New York, Luxor, Caesars Palace, Treasure Island, Las Vegas Hilton as well as many private estates throughout the United States.
