Looking East 1947D

Bryanna Marie draws her inspiration from the everyday beauty that the natural world surrounds us with. She pursues the things that tend to fade into the background of the daily hustle and bustle, bringing their beauty into sharp focus with her miniature paintings. Born and raised in Tucson, AZ; painting quickly became Bry’s most sought out passion. She made sure to immerse herself with artists she admired, absorbing whatever she could while on her self-taught path. In 2014, Bry found herself painting a 3 by 3-inch canvas for a charity event, and quickly fell in love with the challenge of conveying big artistic ideas on small canvases. After that first painting, she continued to push the boundaries, working with smaller and smaller canvases and experimenting with different materials. She now paints landscapes and portraits on coins with oil paints, smaller than 1 inch in diameter. Bryanna’s paintings highlight the importance of traditional painting styles, while proving that tiny things can hold an abundance of wonder and beauty when we stop to notice them. Her work has been featured on ABC News and Ripley’s Believe It or Not! and she continues to show her work around the United States as well as abroad.
