Into Painting: The Work of Brendan Stuart Burns

A fascinating insight into an extraordinary artist, this analysis explores one of Wales' contemporary painters. This rich discussion reflects on the different media Burns uses—such as paint, layered Perspex, and encaustic wax—and examines the remarkable abstract paintings of a small beach town’s rock pools. Illuminating the constant change of a shoreline, Burns captures the flux state of fragmented, half-seen images that teeter on the edge of recognition, and this discussion offers seemingly limitless approaches to those drawings.
