glenn brady..born 1966 in Brisbane Australia...grew up in a suburb of wooden houses,some on stilts to deal with the heat of the summer....it was the same as all the other suburbs around it......didn't like school and left at 15 ,then home at 16...moved around alot,drank alot and went nuts... started painting in 1993 after a stay in a local psychiatric hospital and since then have hardly stopped.....have had 13 solo shows in brisbane mainly..3 in melbourne.... also won 1st prize overall in the Gold Coast Show art awards..which was nice..my first competition... i have never studied art and dont really know much about it..i just love to paint...and i paint what i see mainly....which to others mightn't seem like much....but to me it's all ive known......rows of houses and the very varied people who dwell in these suburbs where each person's home and life can be completely different to there neighbour who lives 15 feet away....... |
