He founded the Gloucester School of Painting from his home base in Massachusetts, where he painted some of his most enduring scenes of boats and harbors. Gruppe's paintings also include wintry scenes in Vermont and farmlands around the Woodstock, New York area. He adopted a Post-Impressionist style, with expressive, edged brushstrokes that lend a touch of realism to his work. His compositions emphasized color and value, even with monochromatic winter scenes. Much of Gruppe's artwork for sale includes vibrant pastels and ochers, in particular, to highlight structural elements in his foregrounds.
