Featured Artist ||| Chelsea Brown (San Francisco, CA) ||| Illustration & Painter
Chelsea Brown draws and paints sword wielding, horde-leading badass ladies bent on revenge and wreaking havoc. Working mainly in oil paint and graphite, she is inspired by all things epic, legendary and womanly. With a background in costume design, her work is heavily character driven portraiture infused with narrative. She both creates characters and re-imagines historical figures geared towards emulating female heroes of fiery self-assuredness and primal combative natures.
Chelsea recently completed her debut solo exhibition at Modern Eden Gallery. In February 2013 she will also showing at D-Structure, in San Francisco’s Lower Haight neighborhood, in our Paint Pens in Purses’ group show Icecream Girl.
