Garry Scott Wheeler is a multi-award-winning international abstract acrylic artist, published author, and entrepreneur from Southwest Florida. Wheeler has painted for most of his life, but during the pandemic, he focused on it intensely and launched his art business late in 2020. Since then, he has participated in over 50 exhibits, joined multiple galleries, established an online store, won many national and international awards, was featured in House & Garden Magazine and has sold original paintings all across the US and in Europe. 

Full of whimsy, figurative shapes, and energy, viewing Wheeler’s artwork is comparable to looking up at the clouds and trying to interpret the shapes. Wheeler notes that his inspiration comes from several areas such as music, travels, and outer space. Part of his creative process includes listening to his robust vinyl collection while he paints. 

Through the use of texture and layering, along with bold and complementary color combinations, the artist exudes imaginative and energetic artworks which inspire a lighter, brighter world.

Currently, Wheeler lives and works in South Florida where he serves as the Board President of Marco Island Center for the Visual and Performing Arts, as well as a member of the United Artists of Collier and the Bayshore Art District in Naples.
