First, I wouldn't be here now writing this story but for the support and love from my Wife - and our three Sons! They're my everything..
"Glendons Graphics" is the name of my new 'shop'. Hello readers! I hope this finds you feeling as good as you can be. Well, I've been busy in the last few weeks - figuring out software to work with my artful deeds!
My drawing passion began as a hobby, just an activity to pass the time while I was recovering slowly in hospital from a rare medical-condition, Transverse-Myelitis, secondary to Guillian-Barre-Syndrome from an immune-reaction to 'FLUVAX' needle, back in 2007. I used to draw my creations in a smallish-'graph-book' and at a very slow pace. I would try and do one per day, or sometimes it might stretch to two (when my inspiration flowed).
Abstract artistic designs are what I love to create - I get a pure surge of imagination and it flows out through my left-hand onto the page. Sometimes I'll get an idea from just looking up - at the beautiful, amazing night-sky, or it might be a flower that inspires me - nature is the ultimate muse to me.
It was when I showed my friends what I'd done - they'd say things like; "..Wow, Glendon - you really need to do something with these drawings.." So eventually I built up the courage and I transferred them into a larger format - the "old-fashioned-way", by completely re-creating them, but I also discovered that they look much better in the larger sizes too!
I have taken the plunge and opened an online store - selling "Fine Art Prints" of my original drawings! I have big dreams and plans - but at the moment, I'm the designer, the artist, the printer, the packer, the shipper and sender. And that's fine by me too!
All items are packaged with the utmost care. Prints are first placed in archival safe, plastic protective sleeves with a sheet of cardboard and then inside hard envelope mailers (crush and bend-proof!) I trust you'll find something just right for you! Please, simply 'click' the link below...
