Gray Artus - Modern Expressionist Painter and Photographer - Asheville, North Carolina
Most widely known for his photography and photo manipulations Gray Artus now is also recognized for his [Modern Expressionistic Style] acrylic paintings. His use of bold colors and adventurous brush strokes are used to move his viewer through the details of his paintings. In addition to the bold use of color his work have entered into a unique place using only black and white for an even more moody representation of his subjects. Subjects include animals to abstracts.

Battling anxiety for most of his life, painting has become a type of therapy for him.
Gray says that his creations are dependent upon his mood or things that he may be dealing with emotionally at the time and tends to leak out into his artwork.
He also says that "each creation is personal and a definite part of his soul."
