Brad Donovan

Brad Donovan is a self-taught artist from Hawkes Bay.  He works in a hard edged acrylic style of painting, creating super flat paintings made up of layers of simplified imagery.

Brad’s work often portrays landscapes and domestic scenes inspired by childhood and everyday situations.  By using a fresh and clean approach to painting and maintaining an inventive interaction with nature, Brad likes to break down what he sees into honest and simple forms.  The end result creates a sense of fun and playfulness while provoking feelings of familiarity and curiosity.
