    Artist Statement - Leslie Browne

    Leslie Browne was born and grew up in Los Angeles, California, U.S.A. She studied atvarious art academies in California before she took residence in the Netherlands. Her early paintings are a critical portrait of the American middle class. Based in Amsterdam, her reflection of the States is enhanced as a witness from a distance. Being a product of the culture she paints, her work is not without sentimentality. Browne’s work is influenced by television and film, painted in thin layers, without the appearance of brush strokes. In these realistic paintings, subtle abstract areas are left open to involve the visual participation of the viewer.
