“A good painting, to me, is nature’s truth filtered through the artist.”
The month of July 2022 Josh Elliott will be the featured artist at Claggett/Rey Gallery in Edwards, Colorado with his show “GRANDEUR” large scale landscapes. The artists reception will be held on Saturday July 23rd. Claggett/Rey Gallery has been working with Josh Elliott since January of 2003 and over the past two decades they have hosted numerous shows and featured his paintings. The idea for the show has been in Josh’s head for quite some time and the gallery has enthusiastically encouraged and embraced the idea. Gallery owner/partner Bill Rey says, “There is a strength and conviction in the paintings of Josh Elliott, where his textures and layers are as exciting and interesting as his subjects and compositions. It’s so great to be able to host a major show of work like this, and it is unprecedented in the gallery world today. This is not nostalgic paintings of a world gone by, but actual locations of the West he loves. I think his time in the field as an observer and deep thinker shows through his creative truth, no matter the scale of each painting. They are just different, and we are honored to represent Josh Elliott, and walk this artful path together”.
