About The Artist

Artist Statement

I am currently showing two bodies of artwork; my Waterscape Series and my Nightscape Series.

My Waterscape Series was born of studying the ocean daily. Creating these works has become a practice of letting go, just flowing.
Asking the painting what it needs from me now.
A river flowing, a reflection shimmering, ripples effecting eternity.

With my Nightscapes Series, I am commemorating iconic local landmarks–dive bars, theaters, and beloved Bay Area haunts, for fear they might just disappear.

You can contact me at krisbrewerart.com for more information.

Thank you for your interest!
