Brian Hart


I strive to produce representational images that clearly define the structure of the world in which we live. Through my work I hope to draw attention to an element of beauty that may have gone otherwise unnoticed.

 "At first glance my work may appear diversified in terms  of subject matter -- ranging from rocky desert vistas to  New England seaports. Discovering scenes that are  visually interesting, thought provoking, or emotionally  inspiring to me is the unifying theme behind my work. It is  my hope that the beauty in each one will be apparent to  you as well."
Brian M. Hart
 Brian's painting, "Furling Sail" (Boston NHP), won the award  for best capturing the spirit of the North East Region. 2005  recipient of Arts for the Parks Silver Medal.
