Absolutely amazing! I aspire to paint like this one day. Your work is quite the inspiration.

Thank you Moonlet. If you’re interested in the process there are a number of videos on my YouTube channel.

Thanks Aliantd, much appreciated.

Lovely stuff, Fred. Transported me - for a moment - to the days when sci-fi book covers bore little resemblance to the story, and were often just sublime (hullo, Chris Foss) spaceship art.

I remember those days, I was responsible for some them:)

And ... apologies for not checking specifics before I waxed lyrical ... your wonderful work was part of my reading journey, and as I search and discover, I remember exactly when I saw each cover for the first time. Many thanks!

fredgambino.bsky.social•34 days ago

Ha, ha, no need for apologies. I forget how old I am sometimes:)

Well that explains the flashback! I will seek them out, as it was a glorious time to be a reader of sci-fi, where every new book was a surprise.

Beautiful work. There is just something about a scifi oil painting that really hits me.

fredgambino.bsky.social•33 days ago

Thanks Tom. Hoping to do a few more next month.

These are oils? Very nice work. Do you have a gallery?

fredgambino.bsky.social•27 days ago

Thanks Thomas. No, these are pieces I’ve painted over the last few years between jobs or for the Worldcon in Glasgow last year.
There is a page of traditional work on my website.
