Lives and works in New Jersey

Brendan McEvoy

Brendan McEvoy is an artist who currently lives and works in Westfield, New Jersey. McEvoy's practice is primarily described as vibrant, optimistic and highly colorful. With a style which often includes bright, spontaneous marks . Sometimes including recurring images as flowers and figures. His work often seeks to hold a simplicity in form, showcasing a cheerful whimsical nostalgia, often childlike at heart. He paints to make a feeling in the moment that can be acknowledged emotionally and physically from the materials used that are present to each viewer. By choosing to use common material’s like watercolors and pastels, McEvoy brings forth a classic to the present hour. Allowing the skill of application to shine through this exploration of color.

Artist Statement

Being a creative is taking a concept re-imagining it, extracting that information and taking action in transmitting its idea of vulnerability and excitement.

I believe as a painter that my intention to supply your information with my information may allow you or another you meet to grow in a direction meant to be understood. Everything we see, touch and taste allows our inner guidance to take lead into a transformation understood.

Hope is in my creations which may allow this to take place.

Choosing to use color at the center of my work is the exact intention in creating that feeling I hope you experience. That feeling of the first step you take outside of your home for the day. Its awakening and drives ambition. That feeling is what I hope you capture when looking at my work. An openness of vibrancy and momentum that you can take with you for the rest of the day. This life needs color and I’m here to capture it to show some light.
