Gil Mayers is a local photographer and multi-media artist. He has been a working as an artist since 1991. He started doing a jazz series and received praises on his work. It gave him an income because jazz was so hot. He chose to do jazz art because it is interesting, melodic and impulsive. Mayers has been doing photography for quite some time. For a number of years, he did the West Indian American parade in New York. Now, he’s branching out to do other things that he believes are more socially significant. Architecture and Art have always been of interest to him. He started doing art back when was having some difficulty speaking and reading, but never had trouble following lines or circles. He’s been drawing since the second grade. In the 1990s, he accepted the challenge and started following his first love – art. That was after his children were grown. Mayers says that art is a means of communication. What’s important for him is when he can do something that’s inspiring and innovative, something that gets people to think rather than just accept. When he was a kid, he thought people that only the most inspired artists could draw realistically. Trying to get things on paper to look like real life was a great challenge to him. But now he does it comfortably. Rather than just getting images that are representational, he’s more interested in putting on paper things people would find interesting. That’s why the framed Gil Mayers art are drawing the attention of many viewers. Mayers has shown his work at a number of venues including Pratt Institute in Brooklyn.
