WHAT"S IT ALL ABOUT?
About Me
- Don Gray
- I must like extremes. Having painted many murals that cover the sides of large buildings, now I find myself doing daily paintings that fit in the palm of a hand. Truth is, large or small, I don't care. With a brush in my hand and something to paint on, I'm happy. I've drawn and painted nearly all my life. Earliest inspirations came from the landscape of my childhood in rural Oregon. I lived many years in the Pacific Northwest, later spent five years in Arizona and seven in California. Recently my wife Brenda and I have returned to the Oregon valley where we used to live. I've always felt nurtured and sustained by my relationship with the land and the light of the West. My paintings have been exhibited in galleries and museums throughout the United States. I've also taught, painted numerous indoor and outdoor murals and illustrated over twenty books.

Fantastic!!!
Thanks a lot, Maggiestacyk.
This brings to mind some of my sister Sue's paintings - the subject and the shadow!
Your palette is so earthy and rich, and there is a wonderful mystery to this piece. Terrific! I love these forays of yours, when you zoom in on objects.
Oh! And it's OK for you to throw in the towel - just don't kick the bucket!
:^)
HA, thanks, Martha. I'll do my best to follow your advice!
I love Sue's watercolors. She can really bring humble objects to luminous life.
I really like this towel. I don't know how many times I've thought of painting my towel but never did, you are a man of action, and it came out so well.
Simple yet elegant.. I can see why this one's going in the mail.
Many thanks, Bill.
Thanks to another Bill...I appreciate your thoughts, Mr. Moore.
I love the light, the colors and the design the patterns make--nice job, Don!
Thanks so much, Vickie. I'm really enjoying your blog.
