About the Artist
Before starting Glenn Jones Art, Glenn was a creative director who worked on some of New Zealand’s most well-known brands, including Tip Top, Lotto, and Frucor. His advertising background shines through in his clever, visually striking designs.
Glenn found internet fame in the mid-2000s with his quirky t-shirt designs, which led to him creating his own US-based t-shirt brand. This success eventually evolved into what is now Glenn Jones Art – a growing collection of prints that celebrate all things Kiwi.
