Brian Now Offers Paintings!
Please scroll down for a few samples!

After years of perfecting techniques that were taught to him mainly by Rod Evans, who may very well be the highest regarded digital portrait painter in the United States today, Brian now offers 3 different ways to transform his photographic art into beautiful, timeless, custom oil paintings of incredible quality and aesthetic appeal on Artist's Canvas, mounted on stretcher-board frames, ready to frame and hang over the sofa or mantle in your living room or den.
Brian specializes in both regular oil paintings and the Impasto variety (and will also do watercolors by request). Brian's style uses mostly smaller brushes and shorter brush strokes in order to retain some of the detail of the original photograph. In areas where more detail is desirable, like faces or around a subjects eyes, Brian then selectively reduces the opacity of the painting around only those areas, so that some of the detail or the subjects face remains recognizable by partially allowing some of the original photograph to "show through" his brush strokes. This style and technique is being used by many top artists today to create incredible pieces of art, and they must be seen in person to truly be appreciated. Reproducing these images on the web does them NO justice at all.

First, paintings can be made from any of your favorite images from your family, baby, senior, engagement or bridal portrait session--images from any of our photo sessions. Or, you can have any of your favorite wedding photographs transformed into a true work of art that will be cherished for generations to come. It will certainly become a family heirloom.

Secondly, you may also privately commission Brian to photograph and then paint any subject, location or local attraction that may hold a special place in your heart. Your champion bird-dog, prize-winning horse or any beloved pet. Maybe your beautifully landscaped home or even the flower garden that you worked so hard to create. All are perfect, PERSONAL subjects for a wall-decor painting.

And third, Brian will constantly be adding photographs to his stock library, but certain, select images will be created exclusively for paintings. He will paint one for display, then offer it as a limited edition piece, with only 50 being made of each one. Each Limited Edition will be signed and numbered one through fifty, and once the fiftieth is ordered, no more will be produced. He will also offer certain paintings as "one of a kind" pieces of art, and will only produce and sign ONE for a chance for you to own a unique, one-of-a-kind piece of art.

Images are large in order to try to show some of the detail, so please be patient while they load... Also, web reproduction doesn't even come close. They really need to be seen in person. Please note that the canvas texture is not visible here because these images have not been bonded to canvas yet.
