ABOUT THE ARTIST

As an artist who embarked on a self-taught journey, Brian’s true devotion to the world of art didn’t fully manifest until the age of 25, although his passion for drawing and creation has been an integral part of his life from an early age. Instead of relying on formal instruction or art historical influences, Brian’s artistic direction emerged organically through his distinct drawing style and personal creativity. What sets his work apart is its inherent spontaneity—a reflection of his preference for drawing inspiration directly from the present moment.

In his artistic process, Brian seldom sketches out his paintings, opting instead to embrace the immediacy of the creative act. He channels his focus into manipulating perspectives, skillfully employing line and color choices to construct captivating visual narratives. By employing a diverse array of unique, yet harmonious patterns, he masterfully achieves unconventional balances in his compositions. His creative wellspring draws inspiration from the intricate patterns found in nature, architecture, biology, and culture, infusing his creations with whimsical elements that captivate the viewer’s imagination.

For five transformative years, Brian immersed himself in the lush coastal jungles of southern Costa Rica. It was during this immersive experience that he deepened his artistic exploration, absorbing the essence of a new culture while gaining profound insights into his own identity and place within the natural world. Returning to the United States in 2021, the profound impact of his time in Costa Rica has opened the door to an exciting new chapter—a reconnection with the art world infused with fresh energy, boundless inspiration, and an abundance of new ideas.

Currently residing in West Milford, New Jersey, Brian shares his life with his beloved wife and four rescue animals. This nurturing environment provides the fertile ground from which his artistic endeavors flourish, as love, compassion, and a profound connection to the living world continue to shape and elevate his creative expression.
