About Bhreon

Artist Biography _MG_5399web

Bhreon Bynum began his art career using the airbrush medium.  He became a professional airbrush artist and shortly progressed to fine art on canvas and vehicles. He now focuses on a variety of mediums to obtain the diverse range of texture and color that is displayed in his art.

His foundation for art began at a young age while doodling with his mother “just for fun”.  He was educated at Mount Ida College in Newton, MA where he majored in Fashion Design.  There he found a more structured approach to his art while gaining skills in drawing people.

The bold colors and hard lines that appear in Bhreon’s style are a result of his urban upbringing. Recently, a long-term goal was fulfilled when he was introduced to oil painting.  Through the combination of life, education, and great mentors, a highly appealing and distinctive abstract style has strongly emerged.  His future goals are to gain gallery representation so that he can continue working full time as a fine artist.
