Artist - Gregory Perillo

Gregory Perillo was born in 1929, in Greenwich Village, New York. He is a painter and sculptor whose style combines realism with impressionism.

Gregory has been awarded numerous honors. His work can be found in The Denver Museum of Natural History, The Pettigrew Museum (Sioux Falls, South Dakota), The Museum of the North American Indian (Marathon, Florida), The Butler Institute of American Art (Youngstown, Ohio), and Saint Michael's College (Santa Fe, New Mexico).
Later Gregory enrolled briefly in art school and then joined the Navy in 1944. He served for two years on the U.S.S. Storm King and during that time he was assigned as a cartoonist. Following that he studied at Pratt Institute, The School of Visual Arts, and with the Art Students League

In 1950 he met William Leigh, whose work Perillo had seen at the Grand Central Galleries in New York. Perillo spent the next five years, until Leigh's death in 1955, studying with him.

In the 1970's Gregory began sculpting and ultimately completed about 30 pieces. Then in 1990, American Express commissioned him to paint over fifty oils and to sculpt two huge bronzes for its world headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona. His work is also displayed in the corporate headquarters of AT&T in Baskin Ridge, New Jersey; the Governor's mansion in Albany, New York; and at the University of New Mexico.

Gregory Perillo now lives on Staten Island, but he makes frequent trips West to refresh his vision. He was one of the first western artists to combine portraits of animals and humans on canvas; in fact he does all facets of the American West including wildlife.

He captures the fascinating saga of the American Indian and his brave heritage in a highly skillful style that vividly portrays a colorful chapter in American history.
