The first 25 years of Brent‘s career marks his time in the applied arts
as an illustrator and designer. His body of work ranged from large scale
murals, books, magazine, event posters and record cover illustrations
commissioned by leading corporations, agencies, publishers, professional
art and sports organization. Of all these works it was his artistic
event posters that became best known and created a strong popular
following. Over the years Brent produced an impressive composite of
painting / illustrations featuring national and international events
including sports, tourism, opera, dance and theater. These original
paintings now hang in prestigious addresses around the world. He has
enjoyed much success and was honored with many coveted professional
communication arts awards for his illustration and design.
Over the past decade, Brent has turned his attention to his own personal
artwork. He brings the power that made him one of Canada’s best
illustrators into the world of fine art.
The energy, intensity and poetry of both his figurative and landscapes are a result of the artist’s passion for direct study from life. It was a trademark discipline as an illustrator and now it is in his personal artwork.
