A professional artist for over 35 years, Greg Cartmell is nationally recognized as one of the country's foremost landscape painters. Cartmell paints in the "plein-aire" tradition of on-location painting, directly from nature. Painting in true impressionist style, Cartmell paints in broken color to represents his subjects, engaging the viewer to mix the color with one's own eye. At times the quality of light itself becomes the main focus of his work. "It's my goal to capture the feeling of a sense of place rather than just a visual inventory", he says.
Cartmell's works are in private and corporate collections throughout the world. He is the recipient of over 300 awards. His work has been published in several national magazines, such as Art & Auction, Art Worlds News, Art Business News, Grays Sporting Journal, Millionaire Magazine, to name a few.

The repeated symbols I use are a ‘visual vocabulary’ that create an on-going dialogue with myself and anyone willing to participate. Images such as the rock, reflecting to childhood memories, the tornado that becomes the bowl that becomes the circle symbolize growing older. In seeking meaning in the world, I am sharing my story.

Within the past four to five years my work has taken on another dimension. While I continue to paint directly from life, I now find that the figure has been of increased interest. I am attracted to people and to painting the drama of life as it is present before me. The process of seeing people within a space and to try to paint that is very exciting to me. Expressing the humanity of the people, seeing the quality of light, and painting it directly and honestly is what I am seeking to achieve.
