2024 Laguna Plein Air Invitational Artist
Brienne M. Brown
Julian, Pennsylvania

“I find beauty in everyday life, the so called ‘mundane’.  Ordinary people going about their everyday lives inspire me.  I especially enjoy painting en plein air, where each painting reminds me of where I was, of the experiences I had, the sounds, smells, and the people I met.  As I try and capture the essence of a scene, my paintings are always more about a moment in time than about a particular location.  I enjoy sharing how I see the world.”

“As I paint, I make decisions regarding the level of abstraction, so that the viewer is able to consider the essence of the subject more than the facts of its outward appearance, its inherent mystery. God’s creation is my subject. My intention is to convey His sovereignty and love for mankind in all of His works, and to express my belief that even though He cannot be seen, He most certainly may be felt.”

“I want to live in a world where travel is instantaneous, time at the easel and with my family are both limitless, and pots and pans dance their own way to the sink and back into the cupboards.”

“Each day I awaken,  I’m excited to start the day and most days it’s with my brush in hand sitting or standing in front of my easel.  I’m passionate and strive to create paintings that tell an authentic story of life surrounding me.”
