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).
...and to serve
Being a family business enables GB Marine Art to provide a personal and
dependable service for our customers. We are greatly encouraged to regularly
receive communications expressing appreciation for our products and service.
Our records also show that a considerable proportion of our orders are from
previous customers, or by their personal recommendation.
We invite you to join the many delighted
marine art enthusiasts around the world who
know that GB Marine Art's quality
reproductions and originals rate among the
best.
