Artistic pieces formed from items I rescue from the scrap yard. I breathe new life into discarded gears, nuts & bolts, tins and fuses and metal boxes– New life for reimagined metals.

I use a stylus and finger to paint on an iPad using the same skill set I use for traditional painting. With my high-res files I then print on paper, metal, canvas, etc. My subject is Chicago at night.

Every piece forged by hammer or by chisel seeks to create its own unique graphic expression, whether seen through the wood grain, the juxtaposition of color or the combination of materials.

I sew contemporary, elegant home décor and clever gift items using modern quilt designs and techniques, luxury fabrics, and simple cotton rope. Each piece is designed, engineered and handmade by me.

My glass art is kiln-formed at high temperatures, up to 1450 degrees, to create pattern and form. My work is mounted on white acrylic for a clean, polished appearance.

Brian Justice

Chicago, IL

I create realistic, figurative oil paintings on canvas, using traditional brushwork to capture nuanced light, texture, and personality in portraits and scenes working from my photos and imagination.

Layered vintage materials—wallpaper, postcards, transfers, and paint—create textured surfaces where memory and place blur, exploring nostalgia, longing, and the fragile space between real and imagined.
