Meet Glenn
Glenn Ellul (b.1991) is a self-taught artist who has been fascinated by the intricacies of local architecture, especially monumental Baroque Buildings, from a very young age. He graduated in Graphic Design & Interactive Media with a B.A. (Hons). He participated in several collective exhibitions, design competitions, as well as collaborations; and has contributed to the production of various design joint-ventures.
Through the years, Glenn has developed his unique style by combining architectural motives and ideas derived from the decorative arts, articulated in an imaginative way by adopting a very delicate and fine approach expressed in ink on paper. He conjures up complete utopian structures: drawing from his imagination everything from the structure’s architecture down to the minute details of statues and decorative art.
Glenn envisions his particular artistic process as a method of self-expression and exploration. He uses his personal experiences as an important source of inspiration that informs his creative process.
