My name is Garry Henderson, and I’ve been drawing and painting for over 40 years. Art has always been part of my life, even as I followed other paths — serving in the Royal Navy, working in the oil and gas industry, and now as a retained firefighter in Kirriemuir, where I live.

After years of doing commissions for friends and family, and sketching wherever I could — even on long-haul flights with pencil and paper balanced on a tray table — I’ve recently taken the leap to become a full-time professional artist. Most of my work focuses on portraits and still life, but I’m starting to explore abstract styles and experiment with AI-based art for cards and prints.
