Geri Bringman - Acrylic Painting

I can’t quite pinpoint the moment but my burst of right brain activity definitely coincided with my move to Tucson in 2005.  Landing in Tucson, after a lifetime spent in New York City, was like landing on Mars.  I was immediately struck by the strange and spectacular desert landscape, and charmed by the genuine and straightforward Tucson locals. 

But I think my greatest influence has been the Mexican and Native American art and culture that is so much a part of the Old Pueblo.  I love their traditional designs and vivid colors, and most of all their broad, beautiful faces.   I feel like I have a lifetime of inspiration to work with here in Tucson, and look forward to honoring this town and its people for years to come through my painting.
