If you hadn’t guessed it, Brandon and Brian
are a couple. They share a passion for art.
Both have featured their art at the Queer Art
show at the Lucky Dog Tavern, and they are
constantly working on new pieces.
Wen asked what he would be doing if he
wasn’t doing art, Brandon said “That’s a hard
question to answer because I honestly don’t
know what or who I would be without some sort
of creative aspect to my life.”
As for how they work together, as artists, and
as a couple, Brandon offered us a little insight:
“We’re both super creative and mostly try to
motivate each other to do better or do more.
We’ve never gotten competitive because we’re
both supportive and encouraging to each other,
which I believe is a better atmosphere when it
comes to putting your emotions on a canvas or
any other media type. And when it comes to collaboration we haven’t done a lot together except
for a few here and there. But we do give each
other pointers and help each other out when
needed. We actually make a great team, we help
each other grow as artists and as human beings.”
Both artists plan on submitting a piece to
ALPHA’s “Forever Red” event on May 1st.
“I love the fact that I’m helping out alpha.
It’s such a good organization that helps a lot of
people out. We are a community and that’s what
we are supposed to do help each other.” Brian
said.
