About GBMA

Amongst our highest accolades:

"With a youth spent in Glasgow - a city with a lively arts tradition - and in the Clydeside region when it was still producing some of the world's most famous ships, it is no wonder that Gordon Bauwens should have been attracted to the field of maritime art. Devoting his considerable talent to depicting these ships in his own realistic and attractive style has earned him acclaim from admirers of his work, of whom I am one among many."

The late SIR JOHN BROWN
- A chief designer of Queen Mary & Queen Elizabeth. Former Managing Director of the John Brown Shipyard, Clydebank.

 

"I may have dreamt up the ultimate ocean liner but only you could have captured QM2 on canvas as you have! Majesty at Sea is a wonderful painting... "

Stephen M Payne OBE, Chief Designer of Queen Mary 2

To share...

GB Marine Art was formed primarily to produce and market quality art reproductions from the paintings of Gordon Bauwens, one of Britain’s leading contemporary maritime artists. Our main aim is for fellow ship-lovers to share in the pleasure that this internationally renowned artist derives from the memorable maritime subjects and events he portrays in his paintings. By offering these works as high quality, individually-signed Lithographic and Giclee art prints, the considerable amount of care and time invested in the paintings can be appreciated by many more like-minded enthusiasts than would be possible for original paintings only. (For those interested in commissioning original paintings, please see our Commissions Page).

  • Thank you for your personal service by post from UK. I am very impressed with the print RMS Queen Mary, The Legend Begins.
    CH, Hornsby, Australia

  • I have just received your print of the Aquitania and felt I must write to say how delighted I am with it. It really took me back to holidays as a youngster before the war. I must add the Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth now as well as one of your QE2 prints. Jets are all very well, but nothing will ever replace the style of these wonderful liners.
    TG, Weston super Mare, England

  • Home Waters hangs above our stairs and has prime position, as it is hanging over the main entry to our home. It 'looks a treat!' and is indeed a real conversation piece.
    DP, Tasmania

  • Thank you for the fine art print of Titanic received last week. Would you now send me a SS Sir Walter Scott. Thank you for such fine products and excellent service.
