Brian Dunning

My art practice is a discipline of non-discipline. I don’t always have a plan, allowing me to let go and make room for play and discovery.

What is your favorite type of art to create?

I tend to work in the abstract, referencing the visual language between shapes and the spatial corridors they inhabit. The act of play in my process removes inhibitions that restrict my creative flow, allowing me to discover my authentic voice.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration in the natural world; the play of light and shadow. In my paintings, I like to create opportunities for conversations between shapes and visual spaces.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would use the money to invest in building a professional art business to promote my creativity through meaningful branding, strategic marketing, and an online presence to sell original work, connect with art collectors and galleries.
