The Weatherburn Gallery is one of the largest fine art galleries in southwest Florida exhibiting dozens of exceptional works of art by leading painters and sculptors from around the world. Many of our artists enjoy national and international reputations, are award-winning members of prestigious arts organizations, and have their original works in government, corporate, museum, celebrity or private collections worldwide.
About Me:
http://weatherburn.com
Born in England, the gallery founder spent much of his career working as a corporate communications executive with two multinational corporations: the IBM Corporation and the global conglomerate Fortune Brands. He has lived and worked in London, Paris and New York and traveled the world extensively as a professional communicator, journalist, art collector and dealer.
At one point in his corporate career, he was invited to manage the IBM Gallery of Science and Art in Manhattan, and served for several years on the board of the Silvermine School of Art and Artists' Guild in New Canaan, Connecticut. These experiences were major contributors to the decision to open an art gallery.
He serves as a member of the board of the Downtown Naples Association and is a Founding Member and President of the Naples Fine Art Dealers Association. He is an Advisory Board Member of the Gulfshore Playhouse and a former Executive Board member of the United Arts Council of Collier County. He is a frequent guest on "Art Talk" during morning drive-time on WGUF 89.9 FM Naples Talk Radio, and often writes on art and travel-related topics for area magazines.
