So far in 2011, we have shown the works of Jack Garasky and Robert Sandidge, two artists new to this year’s Scene on the Strait whose paintings you can see by scrolling below. Now, here is another accomplished hand making his first appearance at the show: Gregory Vasgerdsian, a California native who has lived in Martinez, the host city for Scene on the Strait, for 16 years. Greg has lived in Martinez one year longer than Scene has been in existence; this is our 15th annual.
Locally, Greg’s award-winning plein air art has enlivened the spaces of Epperson Gallery in Crockett, Walnut Creek Civic Arts, Amfa Gallery in Orinda, and many more. Check out his paintings below and on his website, and as we always like to say, check out the real thing—and Greg himself, painting on site—at the biggest environmental and art festival in Northern California, Scene on the Strait, taking place August 13th in Greg’s hometown.
