Gerald Rockwell

is an American Artist residing in Tucson Arizona. Though skilled with a brush he chooses abstract stone sculpture as his way to truly express his creativity. His philosophy throughout life is, it will all work out, and he incorporates that into his sculpture by working with the stone and not againist it.

Inspired by European art and gardens—especially the Schönbrunn Palace—he became a self-taught sculptor after years in commercial art. Though he once stepped away from art, a moment of rediscovery in 2017 reignited his passion, leading him to mentor with renowned sculptor Merlin Cohen. From organic forms to mythical figures, Gerald works with the stone, not against it—embracing imperfections and letting the image reveal itself.

In 1990 he graduated from the Art Center of Tucson as a certified commercial artist. He continued as a freelance commercial artist and illustrator for many years while continuing to sculpt.

Whether it's forming the stone into abstract organic shapes, representing a figure from nature or a mythological creature, he finds the image in the stone and releases it for all to see while embracing the imperfections that represent life itself.
