In looking for a new landscape painter, I found Greg. He is from Northern Oregon, living in a renovated school house he purchased years ago. His work is quite unique as he creates layers of acrylic paint using small tubes, as the brush just doesn't work for him.
Sometimes this painting process can be tedious, but it is a stable, and not many paintings fall apart in front of me. During the process, I am usually not aware of painting a tree or rock, but only distributing paint to the surface. Before the painting is finished, every void on the canvas is filled with tiny slashing strokes of vibrant color. Up close, each swatch of paint on canvas appears haphazard, but from a distance the viewer's eye mixes the colors to form recognizable shapes. There is a balance between abstraction and realism.
His pointillist compositions of nature are quite vibrant and I understand why Greg's paintings have won numerous awards. Stop by and see the collection.
