62 kept showing up, and since then Greg has produced over 106 pinup paintings. The series of pinups known as ‘American Beauties’ is a great success, and Greg doesn’t seem to be running out of ideas (after all, what can be more satisfying than painting beautiful women?). As a result, there have been calendars, countless prints, vintage tin signs, giclees and original art for sale and commissions. “Art is a gift that will last for a lifetime, making all of your dreams and fantasies come true.” l l You can reach Greg and see more of his pinup artwork at www. americanbeautiesart.com or visit the Spiderwebart Gallery at www. spiderwebart.com for more of the brothers’ other work (Tim sadly passed away in 2006). 973-770-8189 contact jean@spiderwebart.com PREVIOUS SPREAD: Silk Stockings , acrylic on Masonite, 2000. “It’s only art,” the photographer seems to say.
