Gerson Artworks

Hello out there you lovers of unusual art. I am Alan Gerson, (perhaps the least known , almost-famous-self-taught- artist in America) I think I've been an artist all my life. I've always enjoyed working with my hands , drawing, painting and making "stuff". I have been self employed since the early 70's beginning as a house painter. I learned how to paint signs and have made a living doing that for the past thirty five years. Those skills led me to custom painting on motorcycles, airbrush murals and related commercial artwork.
As my interest in other art forms progressed, I learned how to paint portraits, which in time sparked my curiousity toward sculpture. Since discovering sculpture I have experimented with various materials, creating art from paper-mache, wood, metal, clay, resin and anything else as yet undiscovered.
I am located in Brenham, Texas, a rural community between Houston and Austin. I have a gallery and work space within my home where I share space with my wife Frances, also an artist and our canine companion, Stella. Most of the work on this site is available at the gallery. If you are in this area you are welcome to come by and have a look.
In addition to the work offered here, I also accept commissions to create personalized sculptures that I make from photos or your own ideas, any size, any pose, any style.
If you find something interesting on this site and would like to know more about it, additional photos are available. The items that are priced do not include the cost of shipping as that will vary according to size, weight, and destination, etc.
Thanks for taking the time to visit our site, you may contact us by phone or e-mail. The gallery is open everyday (except when closed ) so please call ahead if you want to visit. We welcome your comments... Alan & Frances Gerson
