Dow, who lived in Dover, Mass.[3] Simpson was educated at the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, RI, class of 1961.[1] She married John Ramsey Simpson Jr, aka actor John Ramsey, on April 20, 1968. In 2005, Simpson received a Pell Grant.[1] In 2010, she received an honorary doctorate from Bryant University, a private university in Rhode Island.[4][1] Her two daughters are Megan and Phoebe.[2] Simpson spent many years living in New York City, and from the 1970s to the 1990s over 50 of her paintings were featured as covers of The New Yorker Magazine.[5][2] Gretchen Dow Simpson has shown her work at the Virginia Lynch Gallery in RI and the Mary Ryan Gallery in NYC.[6] Her work is best known for her crisp & close-up views of New England architecture and for attention to details, proportions, and lighting effects. Simpson considers herself a “painter with a photographer’s eye,” and architectural forms have always drawn her.[4] She is also drawn to geometry and scale.[2] In October 2012 a 1,300-square-foot highway mural, based on one of her paintings, was installed on Interstate 95 in Pawtucket, RI as part of the former Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee's Highway Beautification Project.[7] Simpson's work is exhibited in New York City, Maine, and Rhode Island, and many of her paintings are in private collections.[1] ADVERT SIZE: SEE RULER SIDES IN PHOTO FOR DIMENSIONS ( ALL DIMENSIONS IN INCHES) **For multiple purchases please ASK FOR + wait for our combined invoice.
