His work is marked by a strong abstract component of flat and thick lines and patches as he reduces the landscape to the minimum of painted moves, sometimes including in the imagery, the presence of a traveler. Bott has shown most recently at Brian Morris Gallery in NY and a solo show at Alan Avery Art Company in Atlanta GA. He has been awarded artist in residencies at Death Valley National Park, Roaring Forks, Aspen, CO and Joshua Tree National Park to name a few. He was elected to the National Academy of Design in 1997. http://www.gregorybotts.com
