Local Artist Dennis Gramlich says “I call myself an emerging artist. In the years that I have been drawing, sketching and painting, I have yet to develop a preferred style, subject or technique. I am still experimenting and learning - most greatly (and gratefully) with Fatima Figueiredo, Robert Krajecki, classmates, and from the demonstrations and workshops I attend. I've come to appreciate the uniqueness of every artist I encounter and learn something from each. I am convinced that I really don't want to settle into one style, subject matter, or technique, and want to remain 'forever emerging'.”
Born and raised in Columbus, Ohio, Dennis Gramlich attended The Ohio State University, earning a BS and MBA. He served in the Air National Guard and was sent to Korea for a year. After fulfilling careers in healthcare, he and his Italian wife, Silva, moved to Geneva to be closer to their daughter, Alexia Monaco. Although always appreciative of and interested in art, he had never taken any classes or pursued his interest until 2014. Dennis has exhibited at several local galleries and shows and won a "people's choice" award at a Kane County exhibition.After painting the background mural for the Geneva History Museum's crèche, he became their resident artist (painting in their window for about a year) and painted over 30 Geneva scenes which he then donated to the museum for sale or marketing purposes.
