Glenn Arthur
Glenn Arthur is a self taught visual artist from Orange County, California. Born in February of 1979, he grew up in a conservative, religious household with little to no influence in art. After shedding his roots he quickly realized that creating art would be his calling. Although he constantly doodled and sketched throughout his youth, Glenn did not come into painting until later in life when a friend forced a paintbrush into his hands and said, ‚’You need to do this!‚’
Since then Glenn has been diligently working on creating his own brand of beautifully painted images. Using acrylic paints on wooden panels, he adds in elements and influential symbols of his past and present to each piece. Beyond the aesthetics of his artwork, Glenn brings an overwhelming sense of passion to his paintings. Touching on themes of love, death, conflict and duality, Glenn’s art tells stories of strength and hope through emotion and sentiment with his sensual beauties and signature hummingbirds.
Glenn’s paintings have been shown in galleries throughout southern California in solo as well as group shows. His work has been published in several art magazines and he also works as the master of ceremonies for Dr. Sketchy’s Anaheim Chapter.
Glenn was recently chosen The OC Weekly’s Reader’s Choice: Best Visual Artist of 2010
