Guy Bruce Corte is a well-lived self-taught artist. He has been a successful businessman with experience in a variety of industries and a passport filled with stamps from his many travels throughout the world.
Guy shares his passion for creation from his artistic family, inherited from his mother and grandmother whom remain an integral part of his life. He attributes his love for travel and entrepreneurial spirit to his influential father, a businessman who traveled the world dealing in international imports/exports.
Guy has owned several businesses, experiencing great successes and overcoming some failures along the way. He spent time as an antiques dealer and a furniture designer, which eventually lead to him owning a furniture manufacturing company, which produced his designs. A tireless entrepreneur and adventurer at heart, he also formed a home decor design company, operated an advertising agency, acquired hospitality businesses and provided professional business consultation services. His love for animals inspired him to open a feed and grain store in the Massachusetts.
As a restless self-starter Guy embarked on an adventure; acquiring an 82 acre ranch in Argentina where he completed substantial renovations, resulting in an Eco sustainable ranch and a farm stay bed & breakfast which he still owns and operates today. The ranch includes an art studio where guests can attend creative workshops. It also houses a breeding stable for Peruvian Paso horses, another great love of his as well as a breeding kennel where he and his fiancé’ Claudia, breed their beloved Rhodesian Ridgeback dogs. The ranch has provided an outlet where he could combine his love of animals and nature with his passion for art.
Now, his latest enterprise promises to bring him full circle, back to his roots. Guy has purchased a large parcel of land in Massachusetts where he and Claudia reside. He has built an art studio in addition to remodeling the existing home. There will also be a breeding kennel where he and Claudia will introduce their beloved Rhodesian Ridgebacks to the US, while still maintaining the breeding kennel in Argentina.
Guy works on projects with new and recycled material, painting, sculpting and creativity with various mediums. It is here that he will nurture his love of art, animals, and nature with the love of his family. Through his art, he invites you to join him on this part of his journey.
