Story / Additional InfoInspired by a dream and Raphael's "School of Athens,” this painting depicts four models in my kitchen with an inflatable “Minnidip” pool.
Part of the series “Behind Glass” which I am doing of apartment windows that I started in 2019, these paintings will be part of a virtual reality series that allows the viewer to “fly up” and see the paintings as “windows” in one of three apartment buildings with 17 stories, as if viewing a museum with the paintings on the outside.
In this painting on the left side of the counter is a version of Duchamp’s “chocolate grinder” where we make out morning mocha’s on the weekend.
On the right side of the wall is a painting from my “Lives of the Plushies “ series of Sarge the piglet enjoying a picnic.

David Glynn - United States

Art Brokerage: David Glynn American Artist: David Glynn is an accomplished painter and photographer. After attending art schools including the Rhode Island School of Design and San Francisco Art Institute, he moved to a large downtown loft in Los Angeles, where he pursued his painting, and also became part of a pioneering digital art group. Over the years he has made scores of paintings, digital prints, etchings and sketchbooks, with each piece fully documented. Many of his paintings are large-scale. His work is primarily figurative, and he has done portrait paintings for notable art world figures. With a keen interest in archival materials, David usually uses oil paints on linen over rabbit skin glue and oil-based gesso, the same methods and materials that the old masters used. His work is in the permanent collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London and the collection of Gil Friesen, who was board president of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. He has received the attention of curators and critics. Howard N. Fox, Curator Emeritus of Contemporary Art at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art wrote: " ...What stands out about Mr. Glynn's art, in my view, is his willingness to engage in an eclectic and free-wheeling range of techniques to process images...."
