Glenn William Carey was born and raised in Nova Scotia, Canada. He is a true Renaissance man. His diverse talents and dedication have touched many facets of life, from his family to his community and his craft.

A veteran of the Canadian military, Glenn has also spent most of his life running a successful auto body restoration business. Known for his skill and integrity, he became a fixture in the community, not only through his business but also as a volunteer firefighter in Pleasantville, NS, where he served as both chief and deputy chief.


At the age of 61, Glenn began exploring his role as an Artist through painting. With a remarkable eye for detail and a steady hand, he creates stunning Canadian Landscape Paintings, Farm and Rural landscape Paintings, and Seascapes, capturing the beauty of his surroundings with an effortless talent.


His knack for precision and craftsmanship is something he comes by naturally; as a child, he watched his father, a self-taught finish carpenter. This early influence inspired Glenn’s own woodworking skills, allowing him to craft beautiful pieces like custom frames for his paintings, which are sold with his original oil on canvas artwork only.


Glenn has been married to his beloved wife, Bernadette, since 1966, and together they’ve raised three children and now enjoy time with their five grandchildren.


Through each role he has taken on—be it soldier, firefighter, craftsman, artist, husband, or father—Glenn’s life reflects his unwavering dedication to his family, his community, and his passions.

Glenn is now ready to share his work with the world and communities within Nova Scotia through his online brand; Glenn Carey Art.
