Venturing far and wide, Brian turns the everyday scenes he encounters into moments that on canvas will last forever as aesthetic art. Parker is a contemporary artist but with a traditional outlook who aims to create beautiful images using intense colour and precise proportions, constructing artworks of true aesthetic pleasure. A realistic painter with a unique vision influenced by artists from Schiele to Hockney and set apart by his desire to be appreciated first and foremost for his personal vision of form and subject matter, whether that might be his clothes closet or the London tube.
