Collection: Greg Latch

Greg Latch is a versatile artist drawing inspiration from a diverse background and varied experiences. His artistic journey began in high school with drawing and painting, followed by studies in acting and fine art at the University of Mississippi, focusing on creating stage backgrounds. In New Orleans, he honed his portrait skills in Jackson Square before moving to Atlanta, Georgia, where he discovered his talent for painting and connecting with people.

Latch’s career took a unique turn as a registered nurse, drawing from interactions with psychiatric patients to enrich his art. His 13-year tenure at Artist Unlimited exposed him to master artists globally, where he immersed himself in diverse mediums and taught drawing with live models.

Latch's art is characterized by conceptual depth, combining disparate imagery into cohesive compositions that explore layers of meaning. His technique involves layering oils, markers, and various knives, creating textured, almost sculptural surfaces. Beyond visual appeal, Latch’s work provokes intellectual engagement, inviting viewers to contemplate the complexities of his narratives and spontaneous drawings, which reflect a release of shapes, energy, and emotion.
