Painting No. 40 - October 2009

this work feels like a rejuvenation of sorts - a coming home back to my roots - I have been on an extended earth tones phase and here with this work I am diving back into colors - for some unknown reason my latest work has started to take on very dark colors - see No. 39 'Exercise in Dark Brown' - I am not sure why ... I do like the dark rich colors seen in some of Rembrandt's work as well as others from the Dutch school ... I have returned to some more familiar art supplies as well - the canvas panel however is an upgrade to a Fredrix Professional Canvas Panel and I think this will replace my previous Fredrix canvas for the future - I really like these new canvas panels - they are excessively stiff and have a nice weight to them ... I have recently added a photograph gallery and you may want to consider browsing through some of that work as well ...

Glenn Michael Morley is a Canadian painter and photographer who discovered his passion for art unexpectedly. Born in Canada, he earned a degree in mathematics and history at the University of Toronto, before working as a product development engineer. Yet despite this professional background, Glenn always appreciated the work of the Impressionists, especially Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Camille Pissarro, as well as artists like Louis David and Raoul Dufy.

It was in Lowell, Massachusetts, in the United States, that Glenn decided to take up painting. One very cold day, he came across van Gogh's Gear art store, run by artist Steve Syverson. Having no background in oil painting, he asked shop regulars for recommendations and left with enough paint, an easel, canvases and brushes to begin painting. He then lived in an old industrial building converted into a condominium, with 28-foot-high ceilings and a large window overlooking the city's man-made canal. The soft and unique light of this place inspired Glenn to create much of his work, which is often imbued with the ambiance of this place.

The first work he did, "Mother of Pearl", was created simply by letting inspiration guide colors. Glenn never took painting lessons because he felt the technique could too often stifle creativity and emotions. He wanted to focus on color and let his creativity run free, not trying to imitate a past style or create something with a specific meaning or meaning. For him, the important thing was to create colors and to be guided by the rhythm and the movement of his arms.

Today, Glenn Michael Morley is an accomplished artist, whose work is infused with his passion for color and creativity. He believes that location and environment have an impact on his work, as they influence his mood and emotions, which are then reflected in his painting.
