Brian Haynes, an accomplished artist for 40- plus years, will speak about his career journey from commercial artist in Los Angeles, to becoming a fine artist developing a style that has been termed New Regionalism. As an artist
born in Missouri, Haynes fills his sketchbook with Osage warriors, the first Europeans, and early settlers inspired by the history of the state. Join Haynes as he invites the audience to join him in a visual journey, inspired by those early accounts, first encounters, and legends retold. Bryan Haynes’ paintings, as part of the New Regionalism movement, sculpt form with light and invite the viewer to enter his world through storytelling.
Inspired by scenes and stories of his home state of Missouri, his paintings grace the pages of national magazines, international advertising campaigns, CD covers, posters, book covers, and many of his larger works are
displayed in buildings and museums. Haynes also owns the Bryan Haynes Art Gallery in Washington, Mo.
