Metro North Painting

Painting since a teenager, J. Geoffrey Golson (Studio JGG) was born in Mexico City and lived in Monte Carlo, Paris, Brussels, and The Hague before attending Canterbury School and the University of Connecticut. He is a self-taught artist and has produced some 150 canvasses, many shown in galleries, art fairs, and private collections. Golson's commissions have included large canvasses for Motorola's corporate headquarters in Illinois, and his works are shown in venues from legal offices to Manhattan socialite apartments. Further, more than 75 of Golson's images have been licensed to Image Bank/Getty for commercial sales.   Golson has worked as a publisher at Macmillan USA and directed many art and editorial departments over the past decades. He now resides in Orlando, Florida, where he is painting full time. Look for influences of Matisse for color and composition, Raoul Dufy for fun, Van Gogh for accents, Henri Rousseau for plants and animals, street art for figures, and others that comprise Golson's unique naif style.
