ALL ARTISTS INTERPRET THEIR PAINTINGS & IF YOU ARE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO BE THERE WHEN YOU BUY A PIECE IN PERSON AN ARTIST WILL EXPLAIN WHAT HE/SHE HAS TRIED TO CONVEY IN A PAINTING.

MANY PEOPLE ARE NOW TRYING TO SELL THEIR “JACKSON POLLOCK DRIP EFFECT” PAINTINGS  AND THEY ARE HORRIBLE TO LOOK AT. JUST LOOK AT THE CHOICE OF COLORS THEY CHOOSE AND IT MAKES ME NAUSEOUS LOOKING AT WHAT I SEE.

POLLOCK NEVER JUST SLUNG PAINT ON A CANVAS, EACH PAINTING WAS DONE WITH HIM IN TOTAL CONTROL OF HIS MASTERPIECES. ANY IDIOT CAN DRIP PAINT ONTO A CANVAS & TRY TO SELL IT. THE PROFESSIONAL ARTIST SEE’S WHAT THEY WISH TO PAINT BEFOREHAND AND WITH A MASTER’S TOUCH THEY CONTROL THEIR ENTIRE PAINTING FROM START TO FINISH. I CERTAINLY DO THIS AND THAT IS WHY MY ART SELLS, SELLS HIGHER THAN OTHERS, SELLS MUCH HIGHER THAN MY PRICES ON THE SECONDARY MARKET, & RECEIVES ATTENTION FROM 

WORLDWIDE GALLERIES!!!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL MUSEUM QUALITY FINE ART INVESTMENT!

THE COLORS, BRUSH STROKES, MOVEMENT AND DETAIL ARE AMAZING!

I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IN MY ABSTRACTS “EACH TIME I LOOK AT ONE OF YOUR PAINTINGS, I SEE SOMETHING NEW AND DIFFERENT” OVER & OVER BY MY CLIENTS. MOST CLIENTS ARE REPEAT BUYERS!

It is so hard for a fine artist to sell works online, especially when the art is seen best in person! I am a professional photographer and worked for the largest studio in America and cannot duplicate the colors and detail in any of my paintings! I love it when someone can walk in and feel the painting. My paints are never flat and very dimensional. It is rare to find anyone that allows you to touch or rub their art, but I love this and so do my buyers!

The biggest compliment I receive over & over is that when someone looks at my abstracts they always see something new or different about the painting! This is why I paint and what I want everyone to experience when they look at my paintings. My paintings come to life and the expression in abstract should always be changing to the viewer!

 In January 2011, Gregory released a 57 page hardcover book “Beaufort-The South Carolina Low Country.” The book features beautiful photography of Beaufort, Charleston and Hilton Head SC. It also features a page with photography from Savannah, Georgia. Over 220 color photographs are in the book and many are from private beaches not accessible by the general public. It contains a brief history on the Beaufort area, where his family has a second home. This is perhaps one of the finest photography books ever published on the Beaufort area. It was just featured in the Charleston, SC “Post & Courier” newspaper under new books and they included a color copy of my book. The response has been tremendous on this book so far!

The next photography book to be released will contain 30 years worth of work featuring fine art scenic photographs of North Carolina. This book will be dedicated to Ansel Adams who encouraged Gregory to become a photographer.

All photography in Gregory’s books may be purchased as fine art prints that are matted and framed. You can also purchase canvas gallery wraps, which are archival and the quality is outstanding. The process is a work of art in itself and these can be framed or hung on the wall without a frame. Either way they are beautiful renditions of his photography.
