Glennray Tutor
Glennray Tutor is an American painter who is known for his photorealistic paintings. He is considered to be part of the Photorealism art movement. His paintings are immersed with bright colors, nostalgic items, metaphor, and with a complete focus on detail. His earliest work was that of barren landscapes resembling the South West United States and Mexico. Tutor's first Photorealist paintings were done in the early 1980s, without knowledge of the original Photorealism movement. His subject matter ranged from still lifes of mason jars, fireworks, and toys to rural landscapes. By the end of the 1980s, Tutor's subject matter had almost exclusively become still lifes consisting of the small commonplace artifacts of daily life, often nostalgic items, such as glass jars, cola bottles, toys, and especially fireworks. Many of Tutor's paintings have appeared in and on the covers of books, record albums, and magazines. Tutor's work can be found in many public, corporate, and private collections.Date and place of birt: | 25 august 1950, Kennett, USA |
