Brooke Bradford Churchill is best known for her use of color and its relationship to subject matter. As a modern Abstract Expressionist working in the traditions of de Kooning and Rothko, her goal is to examine the connection between intuition and artistic expression. "I do not start with an idea in mind and then proceed to paint it," says Ms. Churchill. "I work with color and find the meaning within its character and mass. This same color translates the language of my subconscious onto the canvas, exposing truths that might have otherwise remained hidden, even from me."

Ms. Churchill’s paintings are the result of her concern with societal issues, and represent her personalization of ideas affecting her. She is strongly committed to the idea that her work should achieve its import not just on an artistic level, but on a social one as well.

A native of California, Ms. Churchill graduated from the University of Massachusetts before continuing her studies at the American College in London. She has also studied with the celebrated artist Beverly Cassell.
