ARTIST STATEMENT

Paul Brahms (b. 1963) is a contemporary landscape and seascape artist based in Portland, Maine, United States. Known for his vibrant and expressive paintings, Brahms captures the beauty and essence of the natural world in his unique and captivating art.

Brahms’ artistic journey began at a young age, where he was always drawn to the beauty of the outdoors, the changing landscapes of his home state, Maine. His passion for art led him to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts from Rhode Island School of Design, here he honed his skills and developed his own style.

Brahms’ collections showcase the rugged coastlines and abundant  beaches of Maine. Through his use of color and texture, Brahms evokes the ever-changing moods of the ocean and the land, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the beauty and tranquility of the Maine landscape.

In Brahms paintings he explores the relationship between nature and humanity. His unique approach to art has garnered him a loyal following of collectors and art enthusiasts, both in Maine and beyond.

Paul Brahms’ work has been exhibited in galleries and art shows throughout the United States, and his paintings can be found in private collections around the world. With his bold and expressive style, Brahms continues to push the boundaries of traditional landscape painting and redefine what it means to capture the essence of the natural world on canvas.

Inspired by the works of expressionists like Winslow Homer and John Singer Sargent, Brahms paintings are characterized by bold brush strokes, vivid colors, and dynamic compositions. His landscapes and seascapes often feature sweeping vistas, crashing waves, and dramatic skies, capturing the raw energy and beauty of the natural world.
