Painting in encaustic, Gregg's densely layered pictures often are inspired by aerial views of the American West and refer to Minimalism, Color Field painting, the Pattern and Decoration movement, and classic landscape painting. These same ideas and interests also find their way into her collages and photographs.
Gregg continues to write for such publications as ARTnews. Her work has been exhibited at galleries and small museums across the country.
