Art Brokerage: Gregory Wilhelmi received a degree in fine art from the University of Denver, then later became a tenured faculty member at the Colorado Institute of Art. Wilhemi works primarily with watercolors, acrylics, and oils to create his highly charged emotional paintings. He has become one of America’s most successful artists because of his ability to weave together light, color and texture. Describing his style as traditional impressionism, Wilhelmi uses short, quick brushstrokes and a bold use of highlights to create movement and energy.
