Gulay Berryman

Neo-classical realism to post-impressionist painting style; oil on canvas. I am an artist who has lived and painted in nine different countries on three continents during the past twenty-five years. My art represents an attempt to capture the diversity of scenery, people, and objects I have encountered during my travels. I also enjoy the challenge of bringing specific events or history to life on canvas.
