Brenda Gordon was born in Washington, DC in 1959. She
graduated from the University of Maryland in 1981 with a Bachelor of
Science degree in Advertising Design and Fine Arts.
She likes to capture dramatic lighting and unique scenes
in uncommon circumstances. By combining her painting ability with
her faux finish experience; Gordon has developed a unique style. She
works in oils and/or acrylics, building up texture and glazes to create
vibrancy in color, luster and depth. Her subject matter is diverse and
has been described as contemporary realism.
Brenda can paint the human figure, landscape, still
life, or wildlife, beautifully. Her subject matter is determined by
what moves her at the moment. With a strong sense of composition, combined
with finesse for the dramatic, this of course leads her to create outstanding
paintings. In all of her work, meticulous attention to detail reveals
Gordon’s passion for the beauty of nature, her interest in human
interaction and her love of expressing it through the imagery of art.
