Brian Keith Stephens
American artist Brian Keith Stephens has always been intrigued by the ways in which we use animals as a means of story-telling throughout literature and art - their qualities and characteristics often providing the perfect metaphor for human emotion and behaviour in a way that is understandable, mysterious and alluring. His visionary landscapes combine these elements of nature to create an alternative reality in which familiar people and things enter the universe of the unknown and unexpected. He embraces a wide variety of tools, switching between brushes and palette knives of different sizes. His work juxtaposes multiple textures, sometimes building up layers, and sometimes stripping the image back to expose the process, revealing both the timing and the direction of his creative journey.
