this work was an exercise in the color green - for someone who has not trained their eyes to see - to ask someone like this what color is the forest - they would say it is green - I used to say the same thing until I had so much time on my hands camping in lake Superior that I had nothing to do except look at the forest all day for day after day ... and after a drizzling rain ended I recall looking at that same green forest and suddenly realizing how much more than just green it was - I was starting to see with my eyes - to see the multitude of shades of green of the different tree leaves and foliage that covered the earth - I then began to fully realize how blind I had been to it all - and from then on I started to open my eyes to the colors around me and see them - often for the first time - this consciousness of color is behind much of what you see in my gallery - I am trying also to get those of you who also see things like forests as green - perhaps for the first time too - to really see color - rather than objects - I think the color green is a wonderful color and as an earth tone it is naturally soothing - this work tends to make people calm and cheerful - it is relaxing - plainly simple with a pattern that asks more of you if you start to look at it closely - a psychologically uplifting piece for a room that might need it - it has technique links to the work 'Ejercicio en Amarillo II' although I again did not make the conscious effort to do that ...
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.
