Gerard Hauck

Now in his fifth decade of pursuing his passion, Gerard first worked with black and white film, developing and printing his own images. 

 

As an inquisitive New York teenager, he enjoyed walking the rails and hopping freight trains, camera in hand.  This gave him a behind-the-scene view of the urban landscapes most people paid little attention to.

 

To satisfy his need for open air and organic beauty, he began to study the perfect architecture of nature, in the islands of refuge for flora and fauna, that had found sanctuary from the never ending asphalt and concrete landscape ... in cemeteries.

 

Shortly after the turn-of-the-century and after moving to warmer climes, he made the switch to digital, experimenting with a variety of artistic styles.  Here in relative proximity to the fields and streams of the north Georgia mountains, Gerard finds the inspiration that later evolves into his unique impressionistic style.
