About the Item

Signed lower left, 'Glen Chesnut' (American, 1930-2017) and dated 1991. Born in Amarillo, Texas, Glen Chesnut was the youngest of six children. In 1935, the Chesnut family moved to Marysville, California. As a young man, Chesnut worked as a cowboy in Tehachapi, California before attending Fresno State University where he received his B.A. in 1954. After graduating, he was drafted into the army and, upon his return from his station in Germany in 1957, became a merchant seaman. In between spending half of the year at sea, he worked as a writer in San Francisco's North Beach and began his painting career. Chesnut met his wife in 1970 and continued shipping out as a seaman. In 1982, he left the merchant marine in order to devote himself full-time fully to his career as a fine artist. Chesnut exhibited with success including with Artists’ Society International. In 1987, he was awarded the ASI's Art Achievement Award.
