I am a semi-retired welder fabricator in pursuit of a lifelong passion for art and history (among many others).
Art (drawing , sculpture and mixed media) and music (acoustic and electric guitar, writing and recording my own songs) are my main strengths. I have practiced making art out of whatever I have found available, wherever I have lived and worked all of my life.
These days my focus is on bringing my weld/fab and growing computer skills together in the process of creating welded metal sculpture. In the meantime I am becoming more involved with the art community and associations in Phoenix, Arizona.

About Linda Mullen.
An award-winning watercolorist, Linda Mullen began her creative career painting in transparent watercolor more than twenty years ago. Her education came rimarily through personal experimentation with the aid of books, workshops and personal conversations with successful artists.
Linda's artwork is awarded in gallery exhibition like the San Diego Watercolor Society with many of her more detailed depictions of glass and crystal coveted by an expanding collector base.
This extensive exploration in watercolor led Linda into painting with watermedia on silk. Today she enjoys painting vibrant florals and still lifes in both mediums that find their way into collections throughout the United States. Kaiser Permanent has ten in their permanent collection.
A popular watercolor instructor, the artist offers private and semi-private lessons to painters at all skill levels, including beginners.

Hello Glenn, found this site and saw your picture so I had to ask, how are you man?
God bless you, hope you are safe and walking with Christ Jesus our Savior. Your picture looks good, love all the cool artworks you've done. Doug
Hi Glen,
I love your artwork. You have the eye and strokes of a true artist. I am taken by your landscapes and canna lilies, but my favorite is "Philip." Your portraitures are naturally free flowing with your own unique interpretation. Keep sketching!
Hi Glenn,
It's so nice to meet the rest of Stefan's family even if it's online...Interesting that yourself and Bonnie are photography buffs...It's been a hobby of mine for the past 18 years. Black and White is my favorite...I've seriously thought about showing some of my pieces...keep up the good work, I enjoy all your photos...Michelle
You and I know that art, music, writing, photography, dance, etc. gives us "life" otherwise, we would just be existing and that would be, oh so very boring. love you, your sis
~Bonnie~
The work on the picket fence and the cypress tree is really high quality. It has a harlequin type of aspect to it, of something from Victorian England.
nice work gleen,the guitar & drum is an expression of your musical talent.and cogradulations on your battle against puff the not so magic dragon keep up the good work and the winning battle.and keep on pickin bro. Aloha brada rodney & sista bonnie.
Glen, I was checking out your stuff and I was remembering the story you told me about the stringed instrument one and I think that one is my favorite. I can relate to it cause of my dealings with the same thing as you have. I want to buy one of your drawings someday, but for now I'm broke like everyone else.
