About the Artwork

"Force of Nature" depicts legendary filmmaker Orson Welles, capturing his charismatic presence and the boundless creativity that made him a cultural icon.

Story & Inspiration

Glenn Beck was inspired by Welles’s pioneering work in cinema and radio, including his groundbreaking debut film Citizen Kane and the electrifying broadcast of H.G. Wells’s War of the Worlds. Welles’s ability to write, direct, produce and act—often simultaneously—embodies the idea of a true polymath. Beck sought to celebrate this brilliance, quoting Welles’s own humorous admission that he was an actor, writer, producer, director, and magician. By honoring Welles’s legacy, Beck invites viewers to recognize their own talents and to resist the limits imposed by others or by themselves.
