At the 2021 Plein Air Easton festival, Lon Brauer won the Judge's Choice award with his piece "Solitary Man".  In today's episode, Tim and Marie sit down with Lon to talk about his unique style, and Tim works on getting his name correct.   Lon Brauer is an American artist known for his work in figure and plein air landscape. He has a BFA from Washington University and an MFA from Fontbonne University – both in St. Louis, Missouri.   Born in 1955 Brauer's esthetic leans toward early 20th Century Realism as well as the Golden Age of illustration. This coupled with a sprinkling of Abstract Expressionism results in a mash up of the traditional and the avant guard. Consider it a salad of Eakins, Henri,  Wyeth, and DeKooning. Brauer’s work is firmly rooted in figurative themes with a strong emphasis on drawing. His subject matter ranges from the conceptual to the concrete. In his work he develops a strong foundation composition on which to hang the paint. He feels that painting should be primarily about the paint itself as it describe subject. The subject of a painting is only a part of the story. The way the paint is applied and manipulated speaks to the making of an image and drives the narrative - the emotional narrative.
