Paraghamian's mixed media combines watercolour, pencil, pen and ink, opaqueing, acrylics and felt pen to create representations, which combine an evocative palette with a remarkable level of detail. This union of mood and material generates more than a sense of place, it conveys through an ever changing bouquet of colours, a sense of community and of belonging. Such a diverse style is ideally suited to corporations and organizations with a story to tell and moments to remember. He has garnered a loyal following within the corporate community. His distinctive style is ideal for a broad range of applications, from limited edition prints, posters and artcards to premiums such as T-shirts and tableware. Paraghamian's sophisticated and detailed representations of city waterfronts such as Montréal, Vancouver, Toronto, New York, San Francisco, Miami and San Diego, have emerged as evidence of his unique and widely recognized talents. They are a reflection, perhaps, of his childhood years on the French Riviera. Born in Nice, France, surrounded by the beauty and excitement of the Côte d'Azur. It was here that art, which has always been his preoccupation, became his consuming passion. Following a four-year program at the Ontario College of Art, he enjoyed an award-winning career as an art director. In 1983, the exceptional demand for his limited edition prints enabled him to become an independent illustrator, which allowed him to pursue his second great passion, travel. He has traversed six of the seven continents, an experience which has given him both an appreciation of Canada's outstanding qualities and a global comprehension. He trekked Africa's Mount Kilimanjaro, climbed to the base camp of Mount Everest in Nepal and photographed the Andes in South America. While in India, Paraghamian painted a canvas of the Taj Mahal, a life-long dream. www. gerardparaghamian.com
