Artist Biography
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.
