Recent Paintings by Alan Brain – New Work Exploring Emotion

Here are some of my most recent paintings. Each one is my attempt to capture emotion, to create that certain feeling.

I am challenging myself to uncover those uncomfortable feelings that remain with us long after childhood

As a counterpoint the feeling of joy as Spring turned to Summer inspired this painting.

 I love to paint minimalism, you can create the feeling of calmness with intrigue.

These  few paintings reflect where I am now on my journey to find that certain feeling.
