About the Item

Phoebe Brunner’s original oil paintings transform the American West and the California coast into luminous landscapes shaped by memory, atmosphere, and imagination. Her works draw from field notes, photographs, thumbnail sketches, and a lifelong connection to the natural world. Through heightened color, radiant light, symbolic pattern, and a sense of movement, Brunner creates expansive compositions that feel grounded in place yet dreamlike in spirit. • One-of-a-kind artwork measuring 40 inches square with a depth of 2.5 inches. • Created with oil on canvas • Wired and ready to hang • Signed by the artist on back • Certificate of authenticity is included • Free local Los Angeles area delivery • Affordable U.S. and international shipping available Brunner’s paintings reveal the emotional resonance of landscape. A third-generation Californian, she spent much of her childhood on a 15,000-acre coastal cattle ranch near Santa Barbara, where canyons, ridgelines, beaches, and open land shaped her enduring visual language. Her works become what the artist describes as “re-imaginings” of place, blending observed details with memory, color, and inner association. Through this process, the natural world becomes a site of recollection, mystery, and imaginative return. Santa Barbara-based artist Phoebe Brunner studied at the California Institute of the Arts, Chouinard, the Universidad de Guadalajara, and Otis Art Institute before earning her BFA from the College of Creative Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 1972. Her work has been presented in numerous solo exhibitions, including shows at Sullivan Goss Gallery, the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art, and Elverhoj Museum. Her paintings have also appeared in group exhibitions at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, Westmont Museum of Art, Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery, Riverside Art Museum, and Laguna Art Museum. Internationally, Brunner has participated in the U.S. Department of State Art in Embassies Program in New Delhi, Malabo, and Windhoek. Her paintings are included in public, corporate, and private collections such as the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, Westmont Museum of Art, Glenbow Museum of Art, UCLA Medical Center Art Program, Patagonia, Four Seasons Hotel, and the Santa Barbara Foundation.
