In 1977, he received an offer from Hallmark Cards to serve as artist in residence, which he accepted. In 1996, English began to concentrate on gallery paintings almost exclusively and soon found great success in the new venture. His works are coveted by art lovers and private collectors, and have been shown in Canada, Japan, and throughout the United States, including the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C.

English creates rich patterns using simplified geometric shapes and abstract planes that echo the topography and coloration of the land. His landscapes evoke remembered scenes and associative feeling rather than represent particular locations-it is the essence of the experience, gleaned from his continual observation.
