Artist Bio

Greg Owen is of Jamaican descent and is based in Kingston, Jamaica. He is an abstract and landscape
artist who has been devoted to painting since he was 14 years old. Mr. Owen began his artistic training
at an early age under the close tutelage of his art teacher Dennis Souza. Greg did art throughout high
school up to CAPE Level, copping straight “A’s” and a 2nd place finish in the Caribbean with his piece
titled “Carnival Headdress “. He operates a home studio and enjoys walking his dogs in his spare time.
Mr. Owen pulls inspiration for his pieces from his surroundings as well as personal experiences. Greg
enjoys adding a unique perspective to his technique thus making each piece memorable. He mostly uses
acrylics and oil as this easily allow him to transcend and fuse bright, vibrant colours which embodies
his mantra of “Adding colour to people’s lives. Recently he has been using modeling paste to add
texture and an element of 2D to his art. Life is too good not to take positive lessons from it.”
