An artist living and working in New England, Gregory paints landscapes using vivid and extrodinary colors. He describes his work as expressionist, after the movement that arose around the time of World War One. He has been influenced by their subjectgation of realism in favor of the use of form and color to portray stronger feeling, imaginary scenes or symbols their work.

Gregory also sculpts, and this discipline has influenced his approach to the simplification of forms in his painting.

Life in Vermont is too full of things like snow shoveling, mowing, splitting wood, weeding, making pumpkin pie and swatting black flies to have a hobby, except perhaps, chatting on the 'ArtButt'.

I dont think I know of Rachel Paxton but I am only doing the Northampton shows for now and its a big show. Is she doing Northampton? I saw her name on the exhibitor list for Marlboro but I am not doing that show  this year (its in a couple weeks). For me the only social part of the shows is setup and then talking to my booth neighbors during the show when its slow.


Cool addition to your webpage ... in the music section!

Hi Greg,

Thanks for the comments about the site and the work.....would not have thought Wiliam Morris - I will pull down the books and have a good look, definitely something to ponder :).

If you have all the time in the world or have OCD, you too can "pimp" out your page :). I got the widget from www.myflashfetish.com, only took a few minutes. They even have access to all kinds of music you can put in for free. This is not an ad for their website at all, but having this information first would've saved me some time......

I enjoyed seeing your site/work as well........I was thinking William Blake :)...

Actually, I have several lithographs already posted.  The tree (drawn on step flashing with a ball point pen), the little girl (drawn with Staedtler black pencil on ball grained aluminum plate,) the crooked bridge (Staedtler pencil on smart plate) and the dog on the bed (step flashing with ball point pen and sharpie.)

Who taught the SPA class, do you remember? Was it Davis TeSelle?  He is fabulous, both as a teacher and a craftsman.  He really knows his stuff and his lithographs are gorgeous!

Hi Gregory, Thanks for commenting on my painting. Yes indeed, the clouds I painted in 'windswept clouds' were very much what they looked like. We have unbelievably beautiful cloud formations here in the high desert of Northern Nevada. When the conditions are right and the sky is clear over the California coast, we get incredible sunsets of fire in the sky.

Warm Regards, David

Oh yeah!  You ain't kidding!  I've never sold to a Vermonter and never sold a piece from a cafe.  I've done the art hop a bunch and have gotten into their juried show a few times, but even though that is a huge art event, nobody sells because it is mostly Vermonters.  I keep trying to get SEABA to market the weekend to New Yorkers (come see the colors of fall and the colors of paint, tha soret of thing.), but they have no resources to do that.  I have some connections in Philadelphia and once I have a stronger body of prints, I'm going to sniff around there.  Right now, though, a lot of time is invested into my commute to work (in Berlin) with all this snow.  It makes my week long.

 I don't live far from the Maltex building.  (I love that building!) Keep me posted about the date.

Hi Greg!

Thanks for the advice.  I think that's just what I will do.  How did the show at the 'Pancake' work out?  I checked it out and it was a great show.  Did you get any bites?

wow, you posted wood work! and you even make nutcrackers too! cool stuff.. so you made comment on my possible move to Chicago, guess it could happen but not for about 5 more yrs, I wont take my youngest out of the school system and will wait til she is off to college.


So I added 2 new works, both new demos from the classes I am teaching although I am off to my studio to try to make the boring still life not be so boring. I am posting you as my favorite friend simply because you admit in your profile scuttlebutt is a becoming a new hobby for you (me too)

ok, so now you have me stumped!  what are rf sticks? like oil bars?  yea, i have been wanting to buy some but haven't yet.  what kind do you use and do you avoid a certain kind.  i was thinking about buying the sennielier ones.  yes, i love the bird's eye view and alot of times i just don't have the time to set up a still life at eye-level, and really i don't have my studio set up to do that right now. i will change still life set ups when i get tired of that perspective!  i love your colors on your paintings and i also like the boldness!

Thank you!  I generally start with a photo and then distort that image when I draw it onto the canvas--so, both.  :)
