Greg Garrett - Biography

I was born in 1954 in Alliance Nebraska. I still make my home here and have worked for the BNSF Railway since 1974. I have always had an interest in art. I remember drawing horses and other things in grade school for students in my class. I did take a few short art courses when I was young, but I seem to enjoy reading about different techniques and also experimenting on my own.

I am therefore basically a self taught artist, getting most of my information from books and videos by several different artists that I admire. I continued my interest in art through the years by doing various things. I built furniture and cabinets for a short time in the 70's through the 80's as a hobby. I tried sculpture in the late 80's and 90's creating full figure bronzes of professional baseball players.
