George Gallo Art

American, b. 1956

George Gallo was born in Port Chester, New York in 1956. He began painting at an early age and was especially attracted to landscapes as a way to express himself. He studied landscape painting with internationally renowned artist George Cherepov (1909-1987) in Connecticut for three years. After reaching widespread acclaim, Gallo taught landscape painting four years in a row for American Artist’s Weekend with the Masters.

Besides being a passionate landscape painter, Gallo is also a noted screenwriter and film director. His movies include Midnight Run, Bad Boys, 29th Street, and Middle Men. In 2006 Gallo wrote and directed the film, Local Color, a semi-autobiographical story of his early years as a representational artist in New York and Pennsylvania striving to fit into the contemporary art scene.

Green River, Vermont

By George Gallo

Located in Fredericksburg, VA

Green River, Vermont is a vibrant celebration of New England's autumn landscape, painted with the confident brushwork and luminous color that have become hallmarks of George Gallo's work. Signed lower right, the composition follows a rushing stream as it winds through a forest ablaze with brilliant gold, amber, and crimson foliage. Sunlight filters through the trees, illuminating the cascading water and creating a remarkable sense of depth, movement, and atmosphere. Gallo's expressive handling of paint captures more than the scenery itself it evokes the crisp air, rushing water, and quiet beauty of a Vermont autumn. Though internationally recognized for his acclaimed career as an Academy Award-nominated screenwriter and director, Gallo has also earned widespread recognition as an accomplished plein air painter. His landscapes combine the timeless traditions of American Impressionism with bold contemporary energy, resulting in works that are both visually striking and emotionally engaging. Meyer Fine Art...

Fleecydale Road in Winter

By George Gallo

Located in Fredericksburg, VA

Signed lower left, *Fleecydale Road in Winter* is a captivating example of George Gallo's mastery of contemporary American Impressionism. A quiet country road winds through a snow-covered landscape as brilliant winter light spills across the scene, illuminating the trees and cottages beyond. Rather than portraying winter as subdued, Gallo fills the composition with vibrant violets, warm oranges, and luminous blues, demonstrating his remarkable ability to capture the ever-changing effects of natural light. His confident brushwork and expressive palette create a landscape that feels both immediate and immersive. Though widely recognized for his distinguished career as an Academy Award-nominated screenwriter and director, Gallo has devoted decades to painting, studying under renowned Impressionist artists while developing a style uniquely his own. His work reflects the traditions of American Impressionism while embracing a bold, expressive approach that emphasizes atmosphere and emotion over strict realism. Meyer Fine Art...

April, Connecticut River
April, Connecticut River

April, Connecticut River

By George Gallo

Located in Fredericksburg, VA

April, Connecticut River captures the quiet transition from winter into spring, when the landscape begins to awaken with color, light, and renewed energy. Signed lower right, George Gallo masterfully balances cool reflections of the river with warm bursts of emerging foliage, creating a composition that feels both peaceful and full of anticipation. Delicate pinks, fresh greens, brilliant blues, and glowing golds dance across the surface of the water, while expressive brushwork gives the scene a remarkable sense of movement and atmosphere. Rather than documenting the landscape exactly as it appears, Gallo captures the fleeting experience of standing beside the Connecticut River on a bright April morning as the season begins to change. Internationally celebrated for his acclaimed career as an Academy Award-nominated screenwriter and director, George Gallo has also established himself as one of today's most accomplished plein air painters. His work reflects a deep appreciation for the traditions of American Impressionism while embracing a bold, contemporary approach to color, light, and composition. Meyer Fine Art...

House on Windbey Island, Washington

By George Gallo

Located in Fredericksburg, VA

House on Whidbey Island, Washington captures the quiet beauty of one of the Pacific Northwest's most iconic landscapes. Signed lower right, George Gallo presents a secluded farmhouse nestled among towering evergreens, its warm architecture emerging from a field illuminated by soft afternoon light. The expansive meadow, painted with lively strokes of green and gold, creates a striking contrast against the cool shadows of the surrounding forest, while Gallo's expressive brushwork gives the entire scene a sense of movement and life. The composition evokes the peaceful rhythm of rural Washington, where open fields, dense woodlands, and changing light create an atmosphere of timeless tranquility. Internationally recognized for his acclaimed career as an Academy Award-nominated screenwriter and director, George Gallo has also become one of today's most accomplished plein air painters. His work reflects a deep understanding of light, atmosphere, and composition, blending the traditions of American Impressionism with a bold contemporary style that is uniquely his own.
