new creature paintings

Just finished a new group of creature paintings, and there are a few images below. I am not doing any holiday shows in Portland this year, but everything is available for sale in my online shop. Cheers!

new collaboration works

 I have a new series of collaborative works with good friend Kirsten Moore of Piper Ewan. Recently she has been working on a project where she draws a bird a day to fill her calendar book for a year. Though she is known for her insanely intricate garments and clothing designs, I have always been a big fan of her charming and delicate pen and ink drawings. I recently approached her about painting backgrounds for some of her drawings, and after a couple of trial pieces on birch boards, we found they were turning out quite nicely. Several months later we have enough works to do a little show, which is now up at Johnny Sole, located at 815 SW Alder St. in Portland. If you would like to see all the collaborations, go here. All the originals are for sale at Johnny Sole, or contact me for pricing if you live out of town. Oh! and there are also prints available here.

                     Here are a few progress shots of one of the collaborations:

Springtime art sale

It is that time of year when I start digging out the clutter collected from a winter spent holed up in the studio. I have noticed I have a great deal of random paintings laying around and would like to make room  for new stuff, so I'm having a little spring sale for May and June. most of the small stuff is posted in my online shop, and the larger stuff is available for viewing at my house in Portland. Sorry, I am not posting the really big stuff online due to shipping costs.


Again, If you live out of town, you may purchase smaller works to be shipped at brentwear.etsy.com

Thanks and hope you are having a lovely spring!
