Brian Commerford
Brian’s work expresses the spiritual qualities of the animals and birds by means of composition, color, and brushwork. As he paints, he tries to create a vibrational stamp that reflects whatever spiritual quality or qualities that he is trying to express in that particular piece. Brian uses a lot of close-ups to achieve a fairly intense experience, such as gentleness, joy, and love, to be felt by the onlooker.
He received his art education in California, at the California College of Arts & Crafts as well as Sonoma State University, where he received a B.A. in Art Studio. Brian follows the teachings of Yogi Parmahansa Yogananda, and shares an interest in the Native American medicine of the animals.
