WEST SERIES COLLABORATION

GREG AND JENNY GUMMERSALL

A man wearing a black cowboy hat and denim shirt stands next to a woman with gray hair, wearing a leopard print western shirt and black skirt, both posing in front of two abstract American flag-themed paintings at an art gallery.

The West Series collages by Greg and Jenny Gummersall blend their distinct artistic voices, shaped by over 25 years of living on ranches in Southwest Colorado. Jenny, a Fine Art Photographer and Oil Painter with a cultured Chicago perspective, captures the American West with poetic sensitivity. In contrast, Greg, a self-taught artist inspired by the New York School, infuses rugged energy and patriotic symbolism, reflecting his experiences cowboying in Wyoming & Colorado dating back to the 1970s.  In their collaboration, Greg appropriates Jenny’s images into the collages he creates, merging her photographs with textured scraps of metal from the ranch, local brands, flags and more to craft provocative Western Art Collages. The work, like a graceful horse photo disrupted by swirling flag motifs—bridge their contrasting styles: cultured finesse meets untamed spirit. Together, they forge a bold, unified vision that redefines artistic partnership and the American West.
