Gregory studied at Glasgow School of Art from 1992 - 96, graduating with a BA Hons. He attended a residency at Cyprus College of Art, Cyprus in 2003. Gregory's work has been widely exhibited in the UK and abroad.

His horses are not portraits of bloodstock, but evocations of the strength, elegance and movement embodied by the animal. Pagan rites are again evoked by Gregory's portraits, the viewer becomes a reveller at a private bacchanalia.

Physical strength combines with the weight of a narative outside history. Power, in its most elemental manifestation, is everywhere.
