Toward the end of his life, Mr Gray's peripheral vision dimmed, though he continued painting as he always had: in a converted barn at his home in Warren, Connecticut, where he'd lived since 1949. The brushstrokes of “Letting Go”, a series of paintings from 2003, may have lacked the boldness and scale of his work from decades past, but the paintings retained Mr Gray's hallmark purity, stark bravery, and genius for color.}} 2. ^1 {{Cite news|first= |last= |authorlink= |title=Miss du Plessix Engaged to Wed |url=http://blog.92y.org/images/collage/Francine_du_Plessix_Gray_wedbig.jpg |work=The New York Times |publisher= |location= |id= |pages= |page= |date=1957-03-13 |accessdate=2008-10-31 |author= |coauthors= |format= |language= |quote= |archiveurl= |archivedate= }} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{Cite news|first=Ken |last=Johnson |authorlink=Ken Johnson (art critic) |title= Cleve Gray, 86, a Painter of Large Abstract Works |url=https://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F01E6D91131F933A25751C1A9629C8B63 |work=The New York Times |publisher= |location= |id= |pages= |page= |date=2004-12-10 |accessdate=2008-10-31 |author= |coauthors= |format= |language= |quote= |archiveurl= |archivedate= }} 4. ^"Cleve Gray."
