ASHLYNN BROWNING (b. 1977)
North Carolina abstract-expressionist painter Ashlynn Browning is a recent addition to if ART Gallery. Applying vigorous and robust layering and brush work, her paintings center on line and its ability to convey emotional information. "Experimenting with different line qualities and layers," Browning says, "is an integral part of my process, which involves a lot of drawing." Browning is a recipient of a Joan Mitchell Foundation Grant and has exhibited at New York’s CUE Foundation and Lincoln Center. Other recent exhibitions include those at Hallway Projects in San Francisco and Flanders Gallery in Raleigh, N.C. Browning has received grants and residency fellowships from the Vermont Studio Center, the United Arts Council and the Virginia Center for Creative Arts. Her work was featured in the 2009 Southern edition of New American Paintings. Browning was born in Charlotte, N.C., and lives in Raleigh.
