Brent grew up in central Wisconsin and moved to Florida at the age of 18 where he studied Illustration at The Ringling School of Art and Design from 2000-2004. He took multiple illustration courses from which most were angled towards a commercial market. His focus slowly turned towards more of a traditional path, that of the old master painters. After graduation he moved to Florence, Italy where he attended The Florence Academy of Art for two years, and was familiarized with traditional methods of drawing and painting and the understanding of anatomy.Through observation of nature I strive to capture accurate representation of form and expression, while creating a mood. I see life around us not only as people and objects, but how they are affected by light. It's my goal as an artist to capture these moments with paint.
