ATMOSPHERICS SERIES (2024-present)
Atmospherics grew out of a need to create comforting images in a time of political instability. Brown makes use of colors and imagery that are personally uplifting and provide a buffer against the torrent of bad news.
Brown’s personal belief is that:
“Art can offer an energetic experience for viewers that is borne of the intention the artist brings to the creation of the work, much like a meal made with love somehow tastes better. In this series, I hope others are able to join me in these sacred spaces of peace and tranquility.”
