About The Artist

Brandy has been studying art formally since graduating college although she always drew as a kid. Over this time she spent 10 years at the Gage Academy of Art in Seattle, WA focusing primarily on the figure. There she developed skills painting in pastel and drawing. To deepen her skills Brandy studied classical drawing and oil painting for 3 years at Georgetown Atelier in Seattle, WA graduating in 2012. Since this time she has painted steadily developing her unique view and has exhibited around the Pacific Northwest earning four first place awards. Ever intrigued with figures she depicts scenes expressing their relationship to an environment and sometimes paints the environment by itself. Additionally she enjoys still life where objects become characters as though in a play. There is usually a touch of narrative in her work. Aside from painting and exhibiting Brandy teaches private classes.
