Gregg is a Fall City-based artist specializing in encaustic media, which is an ancient technique that uses hot beeswax and resin to create richly layered surfaces. His work has earned multiple awards at juried exhibitions and reflects a deep reverence for the natural world. By blending a wide range of materials -ranging from pencils to pastels- with the encaustic process, Gregg creates pieces inspired by the beauty, complexity, and the wonders of nature. Raised in a family that kept honeybees, Gregg has long been drawn to pollinators and their intricate roles within ecological systems. Encaustic painting, with its tactile depth and luminous quality, offers an ideal medium for exploring these themes. His art investigates texture, light, and the subtle details of place, evoking both the resilience and fragility of the environment. “Each of my pieces in some small way captures nature’s interwoven relationships and is a tribute and a gentle call to protect this spectacular planet, described years ago by the great Carl Sagan, our one and only pale blue dot. |
