GREG MCGRATH
Painter
Great Cacapon, WV
Greg McGrath has recently moved to West Virginia with his wife, Dina Coe, a poet. In his native New Jersey, McGrath was a social worker by day and pursued his art in the evenings. Painting for six years with Micheal Madigan, a well-known non-representational artist, he learned to use color and shape to express emotion. He has also studied silk painting and water color, in Santa Fe as well as in New Jersey. He states that since he has moved to West Virginia his painting has changed. He is using inks as well as acrylics and is experimenting with different techniques to capture a new awareness as the forest and sky, river and mountains work their magic on him.
