    The Hiker - *Featured on Juxtapoz.com The art always gets carried away. In this creation of The Hiker, the apple and the star show you that he is seeking wisdom, knowledge, and peace. To find these things, he must traverse many obstacles, some of which are seemingly impassable. The original work, created with Prismacolor pencils on 9

    Feathers and Cream - She is deep in thought; lost in that third cup of coffee. In her head she hums a song by Counting Crows... Let me know if you can guess which one it is. (Hint: Think about the title.) Prismacolor premier pencils on 5.5
    Feathers and Cream
    Deliberation of Poignancy - Whether or not to dwell in the conundrum between happiness and sorrow when considering the condition of our world is a situation I feel perpetually confined in. On one hand we have so much beauty and goodness, and I have the faith in Christ that will land me eternally in Heaven, but on the other hand we suffer in so much hate, selfishness, and ill-placed pride that I weep inside for all who will p

    Marionette With Jet
    There Comes a Time - I have always been fascinated with turtles. I had one as a pet and it died when I was 8 years old. Dealing with death at 8, even if it's a pet, can be a hard thing. I remember crying and telling my parents we had to bury him in his bowl but that we could not cover the top just in case he wasn't all the way dead. That way he could climb out.

    A Paradox of Peril - Sometimes we feel that we are in such terrible situations, when if we could truly see the bigger picture and trust that we are God's children, we would realize that we are in fact safe. 12

    Twich's Wooden Plane - I have a friend named Twich. Well, that's not his real name, and he spells it without the extra 't' for some reason. Anyway, I recently joined his band and he was writing a song where he mentions wooden planes. I told him that gave me an idea for a few paintings. Here is the first one. 11

Artist Bio

Bryan C is a nomadic artist who travels from acrylic paint to Prismacolor pencils, from watercolor topastels, and so on. His subject matter changes based on the dreams he experiences just before creating a piece, or the visions that God has provided him in his mind. His style is also decided by the media and substrate he is using at the time. With minimal formal art training, Bryan develops his own unique experiments to uncover the mysteries of each new tool he employs in the creation of his art. He prefers this self taught method and regards the learning experience as part of the fun.Bryan has worked with Screaming GIANT Records, GRYM Records, Fight The Good Fight, Mute The Dirge, Opposing The Arrow, and more. He has also created designs for tattoo studios around the world. His work has been seen in issue #1 of Literary Fever, issue #3 of ETC Art and Surf Magazine, issues #81 and #82 of Flash Magazine, Juxtapoz reader art (week of Aug 13, 2007), on bottles of Jones Soda, the High Springs Herald, the Anchorage Press, the Magpie Magazine, Fort Collins Now, the Thomas Center (Gainesville, FL),and The Gallery Underground (Fort Collins, CO).For upcoming shows and more information, please visit http://www.bryandrinkscoffee.com
