GREG LANGHAM

         Educated at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Greg’s work resides in many private collections throughout the United States. Professionally, Langham was employed by the Penns Manor School District as the High School Art Teacher; a position from which he retired in 2008 to return to his personal art work. His work may be described as a mixture of realism and fantasy, with periodic excursions into the abstract.



Mr. Langham’s works certainly speak for themselves and need no explanation. Above are details from Caesar’s Ghost, Waterfall, and Lamps at the Trevi. Langham’s use of mastery brush strokes creates striking sources of light, shadow, and ethereal glows reminiscent of the tenebrism of Baroque artists like Caravaggio and Rembrandt, and fill the viewer with similar awe.
