Derek D. Gardner
Self-taught photography artist
- 🇺🇸 Los Angeles, California, United States
- Old Gateway Gallery
- 1986 to 2015

I work mostly in photography, sometimes digital art. My first show was in 1986 at Old Gateway Gallery, and nobody came except my family and one confused dog.
Most of my work is inspired by faces I pass in the street. I fix old bicycles.
More about Derek
If you've bought a piece of mine, thank you. It's on someone's wall and that still amazes me.
What gifts mean to Derek: I'd put a gift toward a kiln repair. It's been a long time coming.
