Gene Harrawood is a self-taught artist when it comes to painting. He says that he “has no true style” and enjoys detailed and traditional art and has combined those to contemporary style in the pieces on display. 

From oil, acrylic, oil pastel, colored pencil, watercolor and print making, Gene enjoys experimenting with mixing media together and seeing the end results.
His work has been displayed in local venues for several years, and he is a member of the Bloomington Watercolor Society. Gene finds inspiration from the wooded habitat around his home in the Bloomington/New Unionville area.

Artist’s Statement: “I feel that I’m a guest of this beautiful planet and that Mother Nature is my host. My art reflects my homage to her and to those things that I find so beautiful and that surround me/us every day of our lives.”
