Gerda was born in Bavaria. Her family came to Canada when she was five, growing up in or near Montreal. She earned her B.Com in Marketing from McGill while working full time. She then started her own business buying and selling shipping containers, and then added a second business related to transport repairs. Well, that’s the left-brain part of her background. The right-brain came bubbling to the surface in the 80’s. She explored various art courses, most notably at the Saiyde Bronfman Centre of the Arts, as well as participating in numerous workshops. Her first solo exhibition was in 1994. Continued exhibitions and positive reviews encouraged her to quit her day-time job and become a full-time artist. “I have never looked back”.
