Island Gallery and Studio
Island Gallery and Studios proudly presents our Featured Artist for November — Painter, Gary Green
Theme: From Watercolors to Pixels: My Art Evolution
Gary is an artist who is continually searching for just the right attention-grabbing subject. His creative palette includes watercolors, oils, acrylics and digital painting and likes to experiment with how different mediums can enhance a subject.
Gary received formal art training from Columbus College of Art & Design and began his career as a conceptual artist at an advertising agency in Columbus, Ohio.
Gary has been living in Florida for over a decade, where he finds a great artistic atmosphere with endless new visual subjects and environments. He creates his art in a realistic style, capturing life’s moments, including figures, landscapes and still life compositions. A specialty of his is creating original automotive fine art on his digital canvas.
In addition, Gary is part of several art societies and exhibits his work in National Oil & Acrylic Painters’ Society, Florida Suncoast Watercolor Society, Florida Watercolor Society and other regional juried art exhibitions.
