Ricardo Derrek J. Brown - United States

Art Brokerage: Ricardo Derrek J. Brown American Artist: b. 1991. Ricardo Derrek J. Brown is a United States-based artist working in Acrylics, born in 1991. A relatively new face on the art scene, Ricardo has been gaining steady traction, making his signature painting style known on a national and international scale. His fondness for a monochrome pallet and distressed textures renders his work instantly recognizable by both social media followers and patrons. Ricardo's work bares a deep connection to the macabre, with the subjects of his paintings seeming to be both alive and fossilized all at once, reminding the viewer of the constant connection between life and mortality. Unique features of Ricardo's large-scale works include the fact that he often paints on un-stretched and highly textured canvas, lending his artwork an organic quality. He also eschews working with brushes, preferring instead to use his fingers and impromptu pallet knives for the immediacy and tactile connection it provides to his work. Online images alone cannot fully capture the scale, depth and complexity of this artist's works, which are best appreciated in person. Listings wanted.
