ABOUT ME
Over the years Artman Greg has utilized a variety of media in his work, including oils, watercolor, collage, and photography, but scratchboard is his favorite medium. "I love the way scratchboard emphasizes the dramatic contrasts between black and white. Working with scratchboard gives me a connection to my art that I don't always get with other mediums. I like making art that is thought-provoking and interesting to look at."

Hi Artman, Very nice website and solid artwork. Good to see a fine scratchboarder in action. I think my favorite thing about that medium is working in what we commonly assume is 'reverse'-- starting with a lovely solid black and paring away just enough bare ground to create a visual structure-- reminds me a bit of working (years ago) with lino and wood blocks. It gives strength to the compostion immediately.


As to coffee, I didn't start drinking it until 42, so maybe there's hope for you yet......looking forward to your next works.

Thanks for your comment - the piece you asked about is encaustic on paper mounted on board. I had a large copy printed at a copy shop and glued it onto a panel. Then I brushed on clear encaustic medium and then white encaustic paint (was) and scraped away to reveal the birds.

The art scene is up and coming in Red Bank and in Monmouth County in general.  Middletown opened up a gallery that is artacting some local talent but its still well in its infancy.  The antique scene is much more profound; antiques and curious are at the heart of Red Bank, along with good dining.

Like your scratchboard pieces. I would love to see you do acrylic paintings, limiting your colors to just black and white. Your subject matter is so grand and expressive, I would love to see some of that come out in your medium and process. Food for thought...

Hi ArtmanGreg!  Your work is exciting.  Great designs!  Regarding "Native Son", he is still young enough to look to the future with hope, but there is a resignation in those eyes as well the fact that his way of life is changing dramatically.  Warmest regards, Lucinda

Mr. Gregory...one thing I don't like to do is drive, just because something freaky like a wayward deer can cause an unexpected accident, and my faith gets weak when I think of smashed-up cars!  Praise God that you are left in one piece...as well as everyone else involved!  (Maybe not the deer, though)!  I was reading about your scratchboard adventures...and it is something that requires skill and precision...that's why you stand by yourself on that.  I did a few small pieces...and it's fun and challenging, but I think I will allow you to be the master of that medium, and I will sit back and watch for your submissions on the artscuttlebutt gallery.

Thank you for your nice comments on my work. I have never thought of Maize in terms of chocolate before. That's pretty funny. She is actually a 36" diameter ceramic table top mounted on an antique pedestal leg. I too am a fan of antiques. Usually I restore them but if they are too far gone I go the salvage route and re-purpose the usable parts.

Thanks for the compliment. I like your work to. I have a couple of scratchboard works, but nothing as wonderful as yours. I'll have to check out more of your work.
