Gerry McEntegart

My medium is Pastel. What I strive for in a painting is hard to describe... it depends on the mood or something seen that inspires me.

The following are highlights of forty years of painting. There are many events too lengthy to list here. I have had many one-person shows. Four were notable and held at the Geraldine Dodge Mansion, Lincroft, NJ. The other; international judging by Lowery Sims of the Metropolitan Museum of Art NYC. I also had the opportunity to exhibit for seven seasons at the Reform Temple, Tinton Falls Festival of Arts:unfortunately this event no longer exists because of Hurricane Sandy.
