Influenced by growing up amongst a family of artists, Greg Wood has been an active landscape painter since the mid-90s. This has enabled him to live for a period in Tasmania, travel to Vietnam and Japan and undertake a residency in Brussels. Wood’s work has been included in several important Australian award exhibitions including the John Glover,  Tattersalls Prize, Fleurieu Peninsula Biennale Art Prize, and the Kate Derum Award. Greg won the John Leslie prize in 2022 with his work ‘Reimagining’.

With a technique that embraces a bright and vigorous underpainting, building layers upon layers, Wood finds influences of observation, form, and colour. The result is a collection that uses a fresh methodology, discovering looseness as the work presents itself.
