Burns Greg Fine Art

Information may not be reliable

Greg Burns is a 'favorite son' Oklahoma artist whose work is admired and collected throughout this country and abroad. He earned a bachelor of Fine Arts from Oklahoma University in 1971. Greg works in ink and watercolor, drawing the intricate detail with a pen first and following with watercolor. Though his style appears realistic, Greg says he interprets what he sees and produces his own vision of reality. Greg is quite well known for his prints of Oklahoma schools and universities. Many university graduates frame their diplomas with one of Greg's school prints. Oklahoma landmarks are another of Greg's favorite subject matter. Greg has also traveled widely and has originals, giclee prints, and color prints from Colorado, Florida, Europe, and Africa.
Born with Arthrogryposis, a muscle and joint disease which affects the use of his arms and legs. He draws with the pen in his hand and adds watercolor by holding the brush in his teeth. Greg thrives on challenge, in his daily living and in his art. Ink and watercolor are media which cannot be altered once they are committed to paper. It's the decisiveness he loves and the way watercolor makes the picture come alive. Greg has won numerous art competitions: beginning in high school in 1964, continuing at the University of Oklahoma in 1967, and the Governor's Art Award for the state of Oklahoma in 1978.
