The Huntington Museum of Art’s relationship with Earl Gray spans decades. Early in his artistic career, his work was championed by former curator Eason Eige, and the Museum has enthusiastically embraced him ever since. He is represented in the Museum’s folk art collection by more than a dozen works. In 2005, he was commissioned to create a series of seven relief carvings in the natural rock found along the Museum’s nature trails, and an additional relief carving was added after the Teubert Foundation Sensory Trail was constructed.
