About Gregory B. Saunders

Gregory B. Saunders is a visual artist whose work has been exhibited internationally and is in the collection of several museums including Ogden Museum of Art, New Orleans Museum of Art and The Goddard Center. Working in powdered graphite on rag paper, Saunders creates large drawings with photo-like clarity and detail. These drawings are done in a series and exhibited along with his sculptures, which are created in an abstract vein as a counterpoint to the graphite work. In addition to his extensive exhibition record, Saunders has created original art for Pensacola Opera’s season programs, designed a set for Loveland Opera Theater, as well exhibitions for The Country Music Hall of Fame. Saunders currently lives in Pensacola, Florida, where he teaches drawing at the University of West Florida.
