💐 Harness the subtle power of a central transparent element to unify the composition
🖌️ Explore the expressive potential of a limited color palette
📐 Compose a balanced and engaging still-life while pushing the boundaries of value and color


Perfect for painters who want to experiment with restraint, edge control, and color economy, while keeping their work fresh and lively.

Jared Brady

Jared Brady is a representational artist working mainly in oils. He continues to explore new visual concepts and subject matter and is excited by the countless possibilities of art. “There is beauty everywhere I look. The same visual concepts that excite me in a grand vista can also be found in a simple still life.”
A current theme Jared is exploring is forest landscapes.  “Something about the forest has always transfixed me. The abstraction, flow, and complexity has always drawn me to it. I find that when a subject seems too difficult or out of reach, I gain so much when I push myself to take it on.”
