ARTIST

BRIAN BENT

Brian Bent’s style is a blend of figurative painting with bold geometric constructivist imagery, reminiscent of the linear abstract textile designs of 50s designers and artists such as Lucienne Day. He is a master of repurposing material with an inadvertent tendency toward recycling. His resourceful eye imagines new life for a discarded object, while his gifted ability manifests the inspiration to its completion in an instant. Whether it is in surfing, making music, writing, painting, designing, sculpting, car building, or whatever else sets his soul afire, the result brings one into the joyful world which emanates from everything he touches.
