The Elephant in the Room 48x60 by Brian Peterson Art Inc in Miami

They say that life begins outside of your comfort zone and Brian Peterson is a true testament to that theory. Art is nothing new for Brian. His artistic skills were discovered by his 4th grade teacher in Miami, FL and he’s had a passion ever since. Brian attended art programs all throughout elementary school, middle school, high school, and later graduated from the Cleveland Institute of Art in 2009 with a degree in Industrial Design. His industrial-focused career left his desire to paint on the back burner as he pursued his dream job as a Sr. Automotive Designer at Kia Design Center America. Through his car design endeavors, Brian has had the privilege to design multiple Kia cars and travel around the world to present his work. In 2015, Brian discovered his acceptance of faith and in Jesus which ultimately reignited his passion for creativity and the desire to create alongside God. This reemergence of artistic life started with addressing the “Elephant in the Room’. For the first time in his life, Brian was able to connect his love for art, his community, and Jesus together to form The Faces of Santa Ana. The Faces of Santa Ana is a non-profit organization that focuses on homelessness and the rehabilitation of our neighbors in Santa Ana, CA. As Brian continues to pursue his devotion for art, his private collection of work is inspired from his relationship with the Creator and the beauty that he finds in nature. (Fun Fact: Brian loves nature and animal shows.) Brian has currently expanded his portfolio of services to include personal commissions, large-scale murals, and public speaking engagements.
