This 192 page hardcover book showcases his drawing from 2010 to September of 2024 and features 130 of his drawings in 24K gold, pure silver and platinum metal depicting an array of subject matter comprising of still life, wildlife, ballet, portraits, and figure drawing.

Gordon has created well over 300 metalpoint photorealist drawings, an astonishing output that has announced him as the world’s foremost artist in this medium. He is recognised by the prestigious Art Renewal Centre (the largest realist art group in the world) as the first and only “Living Master” in this medium.
Gordon is entirely self-taught and has utilised his degrees in both Science and History to invent and develop his unique drawing surfaces that are essential in making these beautiful drawings. In recent times he has developed techniques to not only colourise these metalpoints, but also to incorporate gold leaf into the artwork, producing images that are so convincingly realistic that they appear to be colour photographs that will last for thousands of years.
This book is ideal for all who appreciate art and is a perfect gift.
