Brian Keith Stephens Animal Paintings
American, b. 1973
“I have always been intrigued by how humans used animals as vessels for their stories throughout literature and art, how simple animal qualities help depict human emotions in ways that are understandable, mysterious, and alluring. At the center of my work and life are these fascinations with myth, the spectrum of human passion, our kinship to the spirit of the wild animal, and the challenges of balancing the real with the fanciful. My art has been and continues to be my outlet for exploring these themes and conjuring new ones.”
– Brian Keith Stephensto
