Greg Benz
Greg Benz, born in 1977, lives in London, Ontario and is a graduate of Beal Art. Greg has been painting for over a decade, and is an artist whose work engages the viewer through the use of non-traditional painting techniques which stimulates the viewer's imagination. Currently, canvas and wood have become the major support for his abstract compositions, to which he applies layers upon layers of mixed media paint and textures. The canvas is utilized as a framework allowing the marks to play within the limits of the composition. As the layers recede into the background the eye follows through the depths and absorbs the engagement.
Greg also runs a successful T shirt screenprinting company where he controls all graphic design. This is a great outlet for ideas and inspiration for his paintings and digital work. His work has been shown at the Art Gallery of Hamilton (AGH), solo shows at The Arts Project (London, Ontario), as well as a handful of galleries in Kingston and in Toronto.
