Joint Resume

Gregory Frux & Janet Morgan

 

Our collaborative adventures have spanned six continents with substantial time in the Andes, Northern Rockies, Mohave

Desert, the American Southwest and wild lands in New York and New England.

In our travels, we create art that deepens the viewer’s understanding of these evocative landscapes. We present workshops

and lectures for travelers, educators and aspiring artists centered on interpreting natural terrain through art.

 

Artist Residencies:

Each residency we have held has inspired a body of artwork that was shared in programs for visitors, scientists and educators.

Residencies have included:
Death Valley, Joshua Tree and Glacier, and other U.S. National Parks
Voyages to Antarctica and the Arctic
The Appalachian Mountain Club, Omega Institute and Center for Symbolic Studies in the Hudson River Valley
