About
A.E. Brown is a visual artist based in the Indianapolis area, currently in hot pursuit of her Bachelor's of Fine Art from the Herron School of Art and Design. A former student of Cottey College in Nevada, Missouri (but two hours south of Kansas City!), she earned her Associate's of Art with Studio Art emphasis in May 2007.
Brown's independent work is interested in discussing the status of storytelling in our modern culture, especially in terms of the oral tradition formerly shared by many of our ancestors, although explorations of the narrative and its representation in a visual format are also of great interest to her. In terms of medium, Brown isn't picky; she enjoys exploring both 2-D and 3-D solutions to her work, although it bears to be said that painting is her current intended concentration.
When not focusing on more artistic pursuits, Brown is also interested in applying her creative energies into the written word, which somehow manages to feature itself within her pieces whether she likes it or not.

Sketchbook ahoy!
Oh my God, my first update! Perhaps I'll actually stick with this entire "portfolio" nonsense. Of course, this is entirely touch-and-go; watch, I'll say this, and then forget this website for all eternity, &c. &c., until I graduate and realize I have to offer some …
