City as Muse
Collection
A Collection of Work
In my artistic journey, cities and structures manifest as the driving force behind my exploration of the intricate relationship between architecture, history, and the vibrant pulse of city life.
The city, for me, is not merely a backdrop; it is a dynamic character in the story of my life. It plays an unexpected role, offering support, inspiration, and drive. Through my art, I aim to convey how a city symbolizes memories and nostalgia, representing the people I love and aspire to surround myself with.
To me, the passion of the city fuels.

Bringing forth a wealth of experience, a passionate understanding of the power of art in our society, and an insatiable commitment for artistic exploration, Brie’s work not only reflects a mastery of technique but a profound dedication to fostering engagement with the goal to encourage a closer look – an intentional slowing down – to see the beauty in line and detail that can so often be overlooked.
Within the realm of ink, she meticulously crafts each piece, employing thousands of lines over extensive hours to achieve a profound depth and texture with her favored technique of hatch and crosshatch serving as the cornerstone of her works. Her artistic practice is characterized by an unwavering commitment to detail and often explores the nuances of architectural elements.
Illustrating for over 3 decades, her work has been requested for tattoo art, brand logos, and commemorative drawings.
