"These (new) paintings are a wonderful addition to Gary Ozias' body of work and have created an exciting buzz among long-time collectors of his paintings... Gary Blitsch

About the Artist:
Gary Ozias was born in Missouri and raised in Massachusetts, but has spent most of his life in Downs, Kansas, where he taught language arts. Gary has been painting since the 1970s, and has established himself as a popular regional painter with a long list of awards to his credit. His work is in public and private collections throughout the United States and in several foreign countries. 

Gary works in a variety of media, but most of his recent work has been in pastels and oils.  Whether he's painting the vast Flint Hills, the awe-inspiring Rocky Mountains, or a lone buffalo in repose on the prairie, he evokes a specific sense of time and place that engages the viewer in what is reassuringly familiar as well as that which is unknowable in nature.

Some of his oil paintings in this exhibit have a slightly looser style and a rich, evocative color pallet. These more stylized paintings are a powerful addition to his body of work and have created an exciting buzz among long-time collectors of his paintings. With the "Coming Home" exhibit, SouthWind Gallery has curated an irresistible mix of Gary's' latest work!
