Gregory Amenoff paints light and the emotional atmosphere of light. He derives from landscapes and juxtaposes oppositional worlds. He can be described as an abstract artist whose lines are energetic and sweeping.

His works evokes elements of earth, wind, fire, and water. (The two seen here have lightning bolts and waves). Formally, he works with rich surfaces and thick paint handling. His colors are deep and contrasty. His compositions are often unbalanced and unsettling.
