Born and raised in
the Intermountain West, Garth received his BBA
at Idaho State University and now resides in
Bountiful, Utah. As an active outdoorsman, he
has satisfied this additional need for artistic
self-expression through painting the natural
environment.It has been his
love for the Rocky Mountain Regions that
inspired Garth to paint seriously. Over time,
he developed a “delicate sense of feeling” in
his landscapes – particularly his warm lighting
of the alpenglow.
Garth has sold his work
through the Williams Fine Art Gallery in Salt
Lake City, Repartee Galleries in Park City and
Salt Lake City, as well as the Buffalo Trail
Fine Art Gallery and Rich Haines Galleries in
Jackson, Wyoming. He has been featured in shows
sponsored by Gallery of the West in Jackson as
well as the Voris Gallery in Salt Lake City.
Garth and a number of his paintings were
featured in a production by Travelview
International, a firm capturing the sights of
the worlds most highly favored travel
destinations. One of his works, a 40 X 70 oil on
canvas entitled, “Wyoming’s Grand Tetons”, was
featured in Southwest Art Magazine. His
landscapes can also be found on the covers of
Pioneer Magazine, as well as other corporate
publications.
Much of Garth’s success can
be credited to a number of gifted artists and
art collectors who have provided positive
motivation and sound advice. Pieces of his work
now hang in banks, corporate offices, and
private collections throughout the United States
and in China.
