"A self-taught artist, Kreg David Kelley won his first art award at the age of 12 with the Connecticut Scholastic Art Awards Program for a drawing entitled "Holocaust." Throughout his teenage years he experimented in different artistic mediums, but it wasn't until 2003 that his art became more of a full-on hobby. He works with damaged antique engravings and lithographs from the 17th, 18th, and 19th century, oils, acrylics, pastels, and is also influenced by ancient Roman, Greek, & Egyptian history. From February until April of 2006, he had his first solo show in collaboration with David Mamet's Victorian lesbian comedy,'Boston Marriage'- a production by Ganymede Arts (formerly the Actors' Theatre of Washington): all 16 pieces sold. Additionally, several of his pieces hang in a Gerry Garvin restaurant on Sunset Boulevard. He was also in a group show in NYC featuring works by Yoko Ono and donates to the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) National Dinner, Whitman Walker Clinic's Art for Life, and Georgetown Hospital's/Four Season's Georgetown Jingle. His current venue is the 17th Street Cafe, featuring over a dozen pieces. He also volunteers as visual art's curator for Ganymede Arts, which hosted a festival featuring Karen Black in late October of 2007. Having moved from Connecticut to attend the George Washington University, he has been living in D.C. since 2000 and is the curator for a fine art gallery in Georgetown.
