Greg Newbold has been drawing and painting the world around him for as long as he can remember. His goal is to create beautiful things that evoke an emotional response or trigger a sense of place. He believes that art should beautify and uplift and spend his time looking for those transcendent vistas and moments of time that transport one into another place.

Greg spent over twenty years creating artwork for such notable clients as Simon & Schuster, Random House, Heinz Foods, Sony Pictures, FedEx, Harper Collins, Smuckers, Kleenex, Boys’Life Magazine and American Express. Greg’s work received honors from the Society of Illustrators and Communication Arts among others.

Greg’s influences include regionalist painters such as Maynard Dixon, and Grant Wood and LeConte Stewart as well as Golden Age illustrators N.C. Wyeth and Maxfield Parrish and J.C Leyendecker. Building on such inspiration, it is not surprising that in recent years Greg has turned his passion toward oil painting.

He earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Brigham Young University and a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of Hartford.
