Brad VonB

Visual Art – Oklahoma City

Born in Oklahoma City, Brad aka BradVonB has been creating and studying art independently since childhood. He was inspired at a young age by his grandmother\'s art particularly a drawing of his mother and himself as a baby and the classic renaissance painter Vincent Van Gogh. For years there was no focus on his art. The satisfaction of drawing/painting was enough for him. After a few bumps in the road of life he found himself digging deep into his art. Along one of the bumps, a few pieces of his art were stolen and ended up in a gallery unknown to him. A friend found a piece hanging on the wall and recovered it for him(at a price). Brad thought to himself \"It\'s funny that my stolen art was in a gallery. Maybe I have something here.\" Which catapulted many years of constant flow of artwork and focusing on what would work best for him. Which in 2010 launched BradVonB. The name is a combination of his heritage Dutch name, what few of his friends call him and what would be a marketable name for his art.
