Gregory Allen Page’s soulful paintings are an exuberant reflection of a person with a passion for life. His career path, uncommon for an artist, aid in the individualist nature of his style. A painter in his youth, Page studied anatomy and biology before going on to practice Reconstructive Surgery. Page has set aside his career in medicine to fully devote himself to painting, after an enlightening spell in Italy altered his perspective on the art of living. The rich brushwork and color found in his paintings meld well with his subject matter, focusing on spirituality, love, and beautiful life experiences. Correspondingly, Page’s works are raw and personal, with an expressive impasto application of paint. 'Oil painting is not photography,” Page states, “The soul of the painter is in the freedom of his hand and the brush.' Page lives and works in Chicago.

Artist Statement
A painting is a communication, like a sentence or statement, about a subject. The painting’s elements can be complex or simple. In its simple form a painting can convey beauty. In a complex form, a painting can make a comment on popular culture or document something historically. Many of my paintings make bold comments or capture pop culture. This comes from my school of painting “Chicago Impressionism”. My school was formed by thousands of hours of direct study of the art at the Chicago Art Institute. A comprehensive analysis of the sketch books of Renoir, Seurat, Sargent, Monet. My school is the independent study of art itself--a study of the beauty of the Chicago Art Institute.
