Artwork Description
In 1995 Brian created a successful mural business, Lorimer Inc.. Over 8 years, he employed as many as 10 artists full-time and freelance to assist him in executing over 150 murals. All of the murals were custom designed – hand-painted works of fine art – acrylic on canvas and installed on location for various clients throughout the USA and Canada. Finally, he then retired to focus on personal projects.
One project involved navigating the Inca Trail to Ethiopia’s Omo Valley. This is one of the most remote places on earth, and home to some tribes living the same way for centuries.
Project Remembrance saw Lorimer travelling to Belgium and France for inspiration. This sombre series of paintings was based on World War 1. A homage to the brave people who fought.
Brian’s paintings are most noteworthy for their bold, vivid colours. There is also a way that Brian mixes textures and styles to create an almost collage-like portrait or landscape. This of course makes for a very unique and striking image.
