Jessie Benton Evans
Don Gray
Serious artists seeking creative masterpieces. Art originals, major paintings, important contemporary, symbolic expressionism, realism. Richly colorful, painterly acrylics, caseins, pastels, oils; poetic, emotional, visionary paintings; cutting edge, avant garde insights while timelessly traditional. Wife and husband expressionist, realist artists, with many years' experience painting landscapes and still-lifes. Exhibited widely, their art is in many collections.
"Although the concept of the 'masterpiece' seems to have gone out of style, this is a word that constantly comes to mind..."

"...prodigiously gifted...an extremely strong and original painter who has given landscape concepts a new dimension. She would be on my list of 'Ten Best American Women Artists.'"

"This ('Red Snapper, Cezanne and Van Gogh') is the kind of picture earlier artists produced to establish their right to be called 'master'."
The Christian Science Monitor Note: Many Don Gray works are painted using casein., a long-established, opaque, water-based paint derived from an ingredient in milk. It is extremely permanent.
