Tom Glover

Early on Tom was encouraged to go see the Masters “in the flesh” by his mentor John Laurent. Not only did Laurent tell him to stick his nose in the paintings of the Masters, he also encouraged him to experiment with abstract painting and to look at the Abstract Expressionist painters. Glover went to New York to see the Abstract Expressionists “in the flesh”and begin to explore the New York scene. Eventually he realized that his heart was in the seacoast area, so that is where he has lived and worked for nearly forty years.
