NWfineliving Welcomes Bruce Brickman!!! My earliest childhood memory of doing art was as in kindergarden finger painting. I can still see the sunlight coming through the window and remember the big round table I sat at always in complete awe of every little texture, fingerprint, changing opacity in the paint, lines from my finger nail or tool, I was transported to another world. A world of wonderment and total abandonment to my imagiation. Not much has changed, thank god! I was an art major at Verugo Hills High. Next I studied things on my own that were related to my interest in art, such as surfing, martial arts, philosphy, psychology, religion, sacred geometry, etc. In my own journey these were directly related. I finally went to Ventura Junior College and got an Associate of Arts degree. While I was there I received a scholarship to the Academy of Art in San Francisco, CA. Since returning from Japan I executed a romantic ceiling mural with life size figures and swans, and gold leaf gilding in the historical home of Dr. Charles Briggs, CEO of Sunsoft Corporation.

issions have included a mural for Orion International Technologies as well as many portraits both private and corporate. I also consulted for nationally recognized Native American artist Bruce La Fountain on several projects including a commission for Foxwood's Hotel and Casino Resort, the world's largest hotel and casino. 
In the 2 years that I have been in Portland I have painted a mural for the Portland Chidren's Museum, assisted with the John Day Museum, worked with Portland Center Stage on set backgrounds, and done Conceptual rendering for Michael Curry Design as well as other private commissions, and consultations. Locally, at the Columbia Center Art Show I just won first place for a portrait and was awarded the People's Choice Award by the Columbia Arts Guild.
