Galen Garwood is an artist of many disciplines; he works variously in painting, print making (monotypes), collage, photography, multi-media, video and poetry. His art has been widely exhibited in the United States, as well as in Europe and Asia. He has collaborated with artists in other disciplines including two books with the American poet, Sam Hamill. (Passport and Mandala). The last ten years he has lived in Northern Thailand where he continues his art making, traveling back and forth to the United States annually. In Chiangmai, Thailand he also pursued his interest in the Asian elephant, resulting in the Panom Project—projects specifically created to further universal education on their plight. Garwood is presently finishing up a film called Panom: A Story of Humans and Elephants. Other films include Ed and Ed and Cadmium Red Light, which received Best Short Narrative/ Documentary at the Port Townsend Film Festival. Recently he founded Marrowstone Press, a small press label dedicated to designing and printing artists’ books and catalogues and he is currently working on a new body of paintings that will be exhibited in 2010.
