Individuals Only, This Special not available to Merchants)

Hugh Greer graduated from the University of Kansas with a degree in industrial design.

He worked over forty years in the architectural field executing paintings based on his formal training as an architectural delineator.

Hugh's love of dramatic weather and textural vistas helped him decide to become a fine artist. Acrylic provides him the versatility to fully express the variety seen in nature. Hugh uses acrylic paint as both an opaque and transparent medium. He loves the permanence, ease of manipulation and dependable results it provides. Hugh also incorporates some of the techniques and tools commonly used in commercial illustration. His wonderful brushwork, logical painting progression, and straightforward approach make his teaching informative and fun to watch.

In September 2003, Hugh won the Grand Prize at Arts for the Parks, an International

competition. In 2002, Hugh was the winner for Region III in the Arts for the Parks competition and the People's choice award for the same painting. He won Best of Show, “Art from the Heartland 2001,” and Best of Show, “Kansas 7 State Watercolor Exhibition 2000.” Hugh has filmed three Creative Catalyst workshops and he has authored two books: Hugh Greer Missouri to New Mexico, published in 1997, is a sampling of his art with verse by Cathy Bolon Stephenson. His second book, Acrylic Landscape Painting Techniques, was published in 2001 by North Light.
