Artist Statement:
" I make art to communicate my
sense of wonder. Photography
is my medium of choice because
it embodies light and time. I
want to show you the fleeting
images of beauty that are
still here using the eyes,
mind, and heart of one who
wants to hold onto what is...

Ed Knippers and Rudy Medlock taught me what it meant to be a Christian artist. My other friends during my college days, Mark Anderson, Don Shriver, Andy Camizzi, Keith Holz, Mark Howell, Marvin Stevenson and Karen Bramer encouraged me.
C.I.V.A. continues to encourage. |

| Your Personal Biography |
A BRIEF AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF
Glenn Howell
Born: 1956 in Steubenville, Ohio, USA.
(eldest of three) and graduated from Wintersville High School in 1974 with a major in art and journalism.
I attended Asbury College, KY beginning with a major in Art Education and later changed to Studio Art. There I studied under Rudy Medlock and Ed Knippers. I left Asbury and in 1982, graduated from Youngstown State University, OH with a B.F.A. in studio art and photography.
I moved to Minnesota in 1983 where I built the art department from scratch and taught art, photography, painting, and pottery in a Christian school to 7-12th grades and painted houses for a living. The Mentor Program for the State of Minnesota asked me to be a Mentor which I considered quite an honor. .
I moved to Virginia after the flood of 1993 where I managed mounting and display departments for photo/digital labs, working with The Pentagon, Corcoran Museum, Air Force, Treasury Dept., Channel 4, etc. and continued painting houses for a living.
In 1995, I married Ginny Hickey and inherited six incredible grandchildren.
After a ladder accident, I have called it quits to house painting and am working as artist/owner of G.O. Howell Photographic Art. I do freelance work for a local newspaper (Fauquier Times-Democrat) occasionally, get published occasionally (most recent: Omnibus IV, editors Gene Veith/Ty Fischer/Doug Wilson--published 2009 by Veritas Press Inc.), and sell my prints any way I can. I also lecture on Photography as Art. (inquire for information)

REPRESENTED IN: Caulfield Gallery, Washington, VA.; Pearmund Cellars, New Baltimore, VA; The Studio Frame Shop, Warrenton, VA; and The Winery at La Grange, Haymarket, VA.
MEMBER of: C.I.V.A. (Christians in Visual Art).
*My work continues to find itself included in the collections of many patrons of fine art and should be in yours. I am always seeking more representation and am ready to start teaching art again in the right school.
