ABOUT
Brittnee is an uprooted artist living on the outskirts of Seattle Washington. She was born and raised in Southern California, where she had a life full of adventure and exploration surrounded by her brothers and sister. Together they sought within one another fun, companionship, and love. From a young age Brittnee loved to color and practice drawing any picture around her until she got it almost near perfect to the original. She always felt different from the rest of her family, thinking and acting differently in creative ways. When she came to realize in high school her love for art, she started to teach herself how to create. Into her adult life, she got married and has four amazing children who instill an even deeper sense of creative purpose.
Brittnee’s artwork represents hidden and unseen beauty with a simple, minimalistic and organic development. She tries to provoke emotions in a natural way. Her artwork is meant to inspire connection and calmness within ones self. She paints from the heart and lets her emotions guide her into creating paintings, as well as connect with the viewer on a deeper emotional level. Through her process, much like life, she has layers upon layers. She uses charcoal, collage, inks, pens, markers and acrylic paints to get depth in her paintings representing the depths each individual has lived in their life. She finishes every painting in oil paints to bring her paintings alive to help pull your emotions through the colors. While you find that even under the chaotic layers, a honest and encouraging final product represents a beautiful, peaceful and full life ahead. Brittnee says,
“I believe that artist hold the power in this world to not only influence our peers, but also promote emotion and connection with each other through the beauty of art.”
Brittnee has also successfully translated her art into illustrations in the book industry. She currently has one published children’s book as an illustrator, and is working on her second book, with more lined up. She feels as though illustrations has brought on a new love and passion for being able to create illustrations in books for more people to enjoy art in a different medium.
Brittnee currently has work up and down the west coast, from Orange County, CA to Seattle, Wa. She has done live paintings for the corporate art world, live paintings through the global art event known as Art Battle, and countless other events. She is currently selling independently. And you can find her illustrated book “God Made You” on amazon.
Brittnee’s studio is open year round, drawing inspiration from the people, nature and scenery that the PNW offers. She loves to connect with the people within her community, and surrounding areas, and to develop the impact that links artist and the viewers together. She enjoys bringing her four children into the studio to help them learn to paint their emotions and find happiness though the different art materials as she has learned to do. Brittnee plans to continue to inspire those around her and expand beyond the United States west coast in hopes to touch more people emotionally and connect through her art. She is always optimistic and looking forward to what the future holds.
