A changing of the seasons, turning the page to reveal the next chapter, making hard decisions, and remaining true to oneself through it all. This piece embodies the duality of stagnation and growth. An ode to a conscious new path into the unknown.

Get to Know the Artist:
Brooke Lewis’s work is an amalgamation of observations from the natural world, coupled with reoccurring thoughts, emotions, and interests that converge into oil on canvas. 

She approaches each new painting with curiosity, working broad impressionistic brushstrokes into smooth, refined images that flirt with realism and nod toward surrealism.
 
With a current special interest in clouds and water, she entertains different portrayals of these features in her work, with a common theme of environmental portals, and the color blue. Her work is often accompanied by custom wood frames, handmade by her dad, Jim Lewis. 

Outside of her oil painting practice, she works as a chemical formulator, practices Brazilian jiu jitsu, and cares for a small zoo of animals at home, just outside of Austin.
