Though he was born in Philadelphia, Bruce Garrity spent most of his childhood living in Alaska. It was there that he developed a love and appreciation of nature, which inspires his artwork today.

Bruce’s connections to Camden and New Jersey run deep. Both of his parents were born and raised in New Jersey, and his father’s family is from Camden. His father and his grandfather worked in the Camden shipyards.
“My work is a synthesis of painterly realism and modern outlooks, which I suppose people would call post-modern.”
