greg pnut galinsky - artist series
Greg “Pnut” Galinsky, a longtime resident of the SF Bay Area, was born and raised in Santa Monica, California. The diverse influence of his family (his mother from Burma, his father from Lithuania) and childhood growing up in Southern California, fostered his self expression and creativity. From an early age, Galinsky was influenced by skateboarding, surfing, and living near the ocean. In his formative years, he was inspired by the cutting edge innovations of punk, soul, jazz, & hip hop. Galinsky’s work depicts elements of music & culture through mixed techniques and media and on scales ranging from very small to large murals. Galinsky strives to capture the spirit of all that he loves in his work. Collaborations for Galinsky both past and present include SFJAZZ, Vans, Barney’s, Collette FR, Charles & Ray Eames Office, Ubiquity Records, Quiksilver, Levi’s, Volcom, adidas and Kia.
