Introducing artist Brandi Strickland
“Seed Stone,” by Brandi Strickland
When you look at the amount of the work Brandi Strickland has amassed on her website, it’s hard to believe she’s only 25, but it’s true; She’s just a very hard worker. Strickland’s exquisitely detailed collages show a healthy love of 1970s kitsch and rock ‘n’ roll album art as well as a propensity for off-kilter compositions and a great eye for color. Her collages have matured noticeably from her early beginnings only a few years ago, swiftly progressing from simple, small-scale cut-outs on paper to fully immersive landscapes made of painstakingly arranged bits and scraps that work close-up as a series of small ‘moments’ but are transformed into a dizzyingly powerful landscape when you step back.
Right now you can get your very own print or original at bargain prices at Paper Whistle. Nab one before this young gun from Virginia gets big enough to charge more than $30 for her work.
