Maureen Brouillette
Maureen Brouillette is an accomplished artist and an enthusiastic teacher. She has been featured in the Artist’s magazine and Watercolor Artist magazine and has received numerous regional and national awards. Maureen has work in several corporate collections and was featured nationwide by Crate and Barrel. Brouillette is represented by Gallery Shoal Creek in Austin, Texas. She previously worked for 25 years as a commercial designer and art director. She now teaches classes and workshops, does demos and critiques, and judges art shows. Duality is an important theme in Maureen’s work. She likes to play with the contrast between order and chaos, analytical and intuitive, and geometric and organic. The final result she strives for is a balance between reality and abstraction. She uses acrylic, oil, collage and a variety of drawing tools to make her paintings.
She also teaches ongoing watermedia painting classes and does demonstrations, workshops, critiques and jury art exhibits. Maureen was awarded Best of Show in the 2009 and 2005 Southwestern Watercolor Society juried exhibits. She enjoys combining acrylic paint with collage of her own paintings, photos, and drawings, to make a personal statement. Her work usually combines architectural images with abstract shapes and organic line-work. Her intent is to use recognizable subject matter in a slightly ambiguous way, because she would like the final piece to be open to individual interpretation.
