GLENDA WISE is a well known Victorian artist who resides in the Dandenong Ranges. She has lived and breathed art as a natural gift from a very young age, receiving her first formal oil painting box, brushes and palette at the age of ten.
Glenda grew up surrounded by the cream of Australia’s artists, she lived ‘up the road’ from Fred Williams and ‘down the hill’ from ‘Longacres’, the home of Sir Arthur Streeton in Olinda, whose private studio and easel she was later privileged to have sole use of until she had a studio of her own. Glenda’s first exhibition was held in the Galleries of the Victorian Artists Society in East Melbourne where she was a member. Earlier member also of the Australian Guild of Realist Artists, and, since the age of thirteen until the present day, one of the longest standing members of the Sherbrooke Artists Society, where she has been a teacher of oil painting, watercolour and life drawing over the past 18 years, and previously as field officer, organizing painting expeditions for groups of artists.
Glenda is featured in the Australian art book entitled ’50 Australian Artists’ published in 1994 by Artists Ink Pty. Ltd., in aid of the Fred Hollows Foundation.
A talented artist with numerous awards to her credit, she continues to teach adults and is also teaching children the fundamentals of sound drawing skills. Her work is represented throughout Australia and overseas.

Pearl has been a name within the women of Glenda's family for more than 100 years.
Her Grandmother was Pearl Adelaide Deller, her Mother is Pearl Gwendolyn Sayer, the artist herself is Glenda Pearl Wise, and her Daughter is Emma Pearl Wise.
The Pearl Fairy images were created and matched with inspirational sayings collected over Glenda's lifetime, to create a book called 'Pearls of Wisdom' which is currently being offered to publishers.

These collectable, superior quality giclee images have been singly reproduced using lightfast chrome inks which will remain archivally sound for up to 200 years.
Substrate is watercolour paper of highest quality archival stock. A giclee print is simply the closest duplication of an original art work that is humanly, mechanically or technically possible and has unparalleled quality and longevity. The giclee process renders an image of exceptional clarity that is hard to tell from the original. Giclee prints are held in the collections of many famous museums and art galleries such as the Guggenheim (New York) and the Museum of Fine Art (Boston).

These prints will be ultimately preserved by having them professionally framed under clear glass. This will present them beautifully and protect them from the elements.

Each print measures 190mm x 280mm and is individually overseen for colour matching, personally signed and numbered out of 60 by Glenda Wise, and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
