Study of African-American male model. (1989) Рисунок - Gregory Paul Kampwirth

I’ve been drawing and doing art my whole life. Even when I was a little boy, I went to art school in Oak Park, Illinois in an old yellow brick building covered with ivy. Art is who & what I am and I cannot live without it!! I further studied art at a junior college called College of DuPage in a Chicago suburb called Glen Ellyn, Illinois where I studiously and deeply applied myself for 6 long years before graduating in 1987. I had delved deeper into art history, music 🎶 music theory, music history, mostly on my own, German language history and everything I could possibly learn about and delve deeply into!! My journey was that of the my own mind, my own thoughts 💭 on what life was!! I had investigated Polish people and their language history!! I'm obviously a modern Renaissance man!! My intense interest in anatomy and physiology branched off from my own personal anatomy drawings from art classes and I became somewhat of an amateur expert at medical knowledge, as it were. Sometime afterwards, I had group shows like the one in 2004 through Awakenings, an organization for the mentally ill. One of my works called "The Angry Sea" (1982) was chosen by a psychiatric hospital (Glen Oaks) for display in its hallway, for which I was given $350.00 and this was also at another Awakenings exhibition in 2005. I also love all of the arts and I’m a bit of an actor as well!!! I’ve even written screenplays and done some photography. In art school I took a sculpture class and LOVED IT!!! I graduated from art school in August 1990 and dabbled in music (early punk rock/industrial) and was in a band called The Villians, with whose lead singer I was enamoured. I’ve seen tons of interesting art and met tons of fascinating people. I was originally trained as an Impressionist when I first studied painting at age 16, but branched off into my own direction. Since 2005, there have been no other artworks sold. At this time, I'm studying classical piano lessons on a weekly basis and then practicing every other day. This is something I've always wanted to do and I have classical piano music going through my mind all day long and it's been this way since I was a kid!! When I was younger, I used to cry whenever I heard classical music being played. It moved me!! Also at this time, I'm studying acting 🎭 again under Carol Dines on a weekly basis, ie, every Wednesday at 10am 🕙 to 12 noon 🕛 I'm a passionate about studying foreign languages, ie, European languages like German, which I speak, write, and read fluently, Polish, French, Italian, and also a little Spanish. I've visited Kraków, Poland 🇵🇱 twice and have seen Western Europe and Eastern Europe and lived in Prague, Czech Republic 🇨🇿 for almost two years, but didn't care for it. I mostly did English teaching and acting 🎭 gigs there (extra work). Just for the pure curiosity of it, I tried learning Romanian about a year ago!! Interesting language!! Anyway, I hope you enjoy my works!! Enjoy your day!!
