eldom does an artist spend a lifetime devoted
to a single theme or subject matter.
W.D."Bill" Gaither's life, has revolved around
nature and the wildlife he loves. While
thousands of words have been writen about
this complex, yet simple man, there is one
word that perhaps best describes both him
and his work, and that is enthusiasm.

His life has been one of adventure since his
youth. Never content to dream of new worlds
and adventures, nor impressed by his long list
of accomplishments. Although he has
traveled to more than one hundred countries
or possessions and all fifty of the United
States, his life is still driven by pursuit of the
new and unknown.

He has collected most of the world's big game
and caught nearly all the gamefish. His
science background has allowed for keen
observations during his trips afield, many of
which have become documented by his
articulate writings.

Gaither's art has graced the walls and shelves
of thousands of homes around the world. His
work in gold and silver, bronze and porcelain
have been acclaimed by many discriminating
collectors. His watercolor and oil paintings
are a standard for the bold look of modern
wildlife art.
