Ari Glass is emerging artist and storyteller who seek to transform the world through his innovative forms of media and entertainment. Originally from South Seattle, this self-taught painter, sculptor and designer combines traditional styles from many cultures with modern touches. His signature gold paint or gold-hues is his go-to medium which fits
perfectly in his paintings that tell stories about the ideas of "The King" and "The Kingdom". As a traditional element repeated in history, gold represents royalty and divinity, and for him it is a spiritual thing.
His Out of Sight 2016 show over in the King Street Station in Seattle featured a few oil paintings and led to his second art show in Paramount Theater. Ari Glass had his first solo show called "The Sun is Made of Gold" about a year ago. Encouraged by people to continue his work, he plans to take art to a whole new level.
Ari Glass is currently painting a mural for Hillman City’s Black and Tan Hall. He is also prepping a new gallery space in Georgetown. The three-dimensionality of ceramics has lately become his biggest obsession and a new medium for him. Although he loves and enjoys sculpting, painting remains to be his main interests as it always has been, and always will be.
