Oct Member Meeting
October 2 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
GEAG welcomes Belleville-based artist, Glenn McCoy to the October 2 membership meeting. Glenn says, “To unwind from deadlines, I like to paint. Most of my recent canvases are of movie monsters which serve as a touchstone to my childhood when I would draw in front of the TV, basking in the radioactive glow of a late-night Creature Feature.” Glenn’s day jobs include illustrator, animator, cartoonist and children’s book author. No other person has been honored by the National Cartoonist Society more than Glenn. His syndicated comic strips run daily in newspapers from Seattle to Sweden. Glenn has worked on popular films such as “The Grinch”, “Ice Age 3”, “Despicable Me”, “Sing”, and “The Minions Movie”. His children’s books “I see Santa Everywhere” and “Penny Lee and Her TV” have been printed in five languages. For a preview of Glenn’s work visit glenn mccoy | the wild world of glenn mccoy
“The world of Glenn McCoy mirrors my own: talking dogs at an AA meeting. Doesn’t get better than this.” – Whoopi Goldberg, Actor
“Glenn could do much better. He simply doesn’t pay attention when he should. Likes to draw during class. He still hasn’t decided to get busy with schoolwork.” -Glenn’s Sixth Grade Report Card
