Every true artist has been inspired more by the beauty of lines and color and the relationships between them than by the concrete subject of the picture.
- Piet Mondrian
Colour helps to express light, not the physical phenomenon, but the only light that really exists, that in the artist's brain.
- Henri Matisse

Michael Brown

Posted by Charley Parker at 5:37 pm

Michael Brown
Michael Brown is an artist about whom I can find little information. I came across his work on the web site for Gallery Nucleus.

He indulges in some delightful weirdness involving vaguely bunny-like things holding matches, sinister looking rabbits and birds with human eyes, and, in particular, beautifully colored translucent imaginary undersea invertebrates, floating languidly somewhere in the dark oceans of Brown’s mind.

The gallery offers prints as well as originals and a book of Brown’s recent works.

    Oh cool! Brown is a professor at the Savannah College of Art and Design Atlanta campus ( I go to school at the Savannah campus and another prof showed us his work). He’s got a sizeable gallery at his myspace: http://www.myspace.com/funpig . He specializes in acrylic airbrush.
