One Of My Art Teachers

[Solitary]

This is one of the people that taught me to be an artist:

John V. Hudak

Throughout his career he lived and worked in Joliet and always taught art classes in his studio or at the Joliet Artist's League, sharing his talent with children and adults interested in art.

John Vincent Hudak was a philosophical artist, humanitarian, and political activist who was passionate about all his interests. He is best known for his watercolor paintings of Joliet buildings and landscapes.

He was a graduate of Lewis University, and received his Art Education at the American Academy of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, and Northern Illinois University.

John Hudak passed away in 1990 at the age of 73, but his paintings and spirit will live on in the hearts of those he touched.

I went to the American academy of Art in Chicago too. I would say he was one of the good Christians and a good friend.  Solitary
