| A. Brockie Stevenson |
 |
A. Brockie Stevenson lived in a small village in the Washington, D.C. area from 1964 until 2009. Stevenson’s paintings are pristine images of American life – the front porches of neighborhood houses, the local firehouse, the old wooden Church. Stevenson walks a thin line between a two-dimensional style and the three-dimensional world it suggests. His paintings and prints are filled with large monochromatic spaces. These spaces are interrupted by colors which bring the painted object into our recognizable three-dimensional world – albeit a reduced and purified vision of America with no hint of nostalgia. His paintings and prints appear in major museum and corporate collections throughout the United States. | ||
