Glenn Wolff: Mixed Media Oil Paintings

Glenn Wolff grew up in Traverse City, Michigan. He studied printmaking at Northwestern Michigan College, and received his BFA from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 1975. He moved to New York City in 1979 establishing a career as a free lance illustrator and over the next decade his clients included the New York Times, the Central Park Conservancy, the New York Zoological Society, Simon and Schuster, Alfred Knopf, The Village Voice, Sports Illustrated, Sports Afield, and Audubon.

In 1987 he returned to Northern Michigan and while gradually shifting his focus to fine art he continued to illustrate books including the critically acclaimed It's Raining Frogs and Fishes by Jerry Dennis, and Flight of the Reindeer by Robert Sullivan. He now concentrates on painting and mixed media work. He has been a frequent artist-in-residence for environmental organizations such as the Great Lakes Bioneers and the North American Prairie Conference, and his art has been exhibited in galleries and museums across the U.S. and Canada.
