Born in New York, artist Bill Brauer started his career as an illustrator
and print maker.
Brauer has studied and utilized the concepts and
techniques of Renaissance masters while adding a distinctly modern edge to
each painting.
His female figures are provocatively situated into these
design elements becoming the narrators of each piece. Based on
mythological themes, dancing and beauty, Brauer paints as if hypnotized or
haunted by his own muse. Sometimes seen as controversial Brauer's women
can be viewed as contemplative, erotic and on occasion objectified.
Painted in warm earthy colours which casts a glow
over each woman, they appear sensual and inviting to the viewer. Brauer
feels the art of sensuality is falling by the wayside. He does not
necessarily want his subjects to be sexy instead sees them as just
"natural, beautiful women" but with an air of mystery.
