BIO
From Iowa, Brenton started taking art classes at Des Moines Art Center at age 6 where he was first influenced by modernist sculptors and color field painters. He graduated from Colorado State University in 2012 and studied Sculpture, Landscape Architecture, and Environmental Science. Chuck’s technical knowledge is a result of the time he spent working for a fine art foundry between 2014-2019 and subsequently developed a proprietary color system for polished metal, concluding his hybridized style of painting and sculpture in 2021. His work is influenced by his observation of the habitats, movements, and patterns of wildlife and has shown in Denver, Santa Fe, and Des Moines. Brenton has been featured in regional art magazines and won awards for his achievements in sculpture.
