Acerca del libro
The work of Farrell Brickhouse and the work of anonymous folk and outsider artists share an innate commonality, often expressing a personal narrative through their artwork. While many contemporary artists draw inspiration from folk and primitive art, it is rare to see an artist that embodies this sensibility. In it’s purest form, it is storytelling through paint, wood, metal and stone.
Farrell Brickhouse writes, “I find I have this large vocabulary to draw from. Imagery that has woven its way thru my entire career is available and malleable. I have access to this personal history with a renewed understanding of it’s original intent and a deepening understanding of how these “forms” can continue to speak for me in paint. I also seek to explore the range of subject matter my paintings can encompass as I look to everyday experiences, tell stories and paint about current events in a expanding as well as deepening vocabulary. At its best, making art is a revelatory experience, a conduit to the beauty and mystery in the miracle of simply being here. Painting is the wish and the prayer and the offering all in one. It is an act of faith just to pick up the brush.”
