S CHREINER FINE ART
BRIAN SCHREINER
Brian Schreiner was born at Sculthorpe Air Force Base, Norfolk, England, U.K. on
September 11, 1955. He lived in South Creek near the coast and in Stow -on -the -Wold, a
hilltop town in the Cottswolds which was started by the Romans with its two thousand
year old buildings and cobblestone streets. In 1965 he moved to Mountain Home, Idaho
and grew up in the west with the outdoors and wide-open spaces. Art has appealed to
Brian from the earliest times of drawing and painting in school or at home. The desire to
work as a professional artist prompted him to work towards a Bachelor of Fine arts and
Education degrees along with some architectural design.
Schreiner spent the following ten years in Los Angeles, California pursuing creative
endeavors. He gained experience in commercial art, toy design, interior design and mural
projects and has designed restaurants and painted murals for many interesting clients.
Projects include "Executive Decision Maker" coffee cup mug, Rosie's BBQ Grillery
Restaurants, a mural around a fish tank in a hospital, working on a motion picture crew
"Private School," Lancaster California Museum of Fine Art watercolor show, painting an
angel picture onstage for a Life Flight Festival of Trees Auction, and painting a garden
hummingbird mural with a picket fence for his wife, Cindy.
Brian began exhibiting formally in 1979, and since has had many shows in the western
United States and is represented in many private collections. Schreiner began
printmaking in 1988. He also enjoys teaching outdoor painting workshops. He thinks
that creating art is like attempting alchemy: (a process of transforming various elements
into gold). It is possible to make art by combining thoughts, living experiences and art
materials in attempting to make good art? Some paintings are created with definite goals
and research to tell a story, some are created to cause a discussion about a given topic,
and others are painted simply to capture a scene or design in which the viewer might find
their own varied meanings. Schreiner's working process is improving as he works to
become a better artist.
Poetic and whimsical in nature, Brian's paintings are often symbols and images of the
West representing intriguing landscapes and modern Western Americana Art. Bringing
back memories of your tricycle you peddled and dreamed on as a kid, now rusted in the
blue sagebrush.
Brian Schreiner lives in Boise, Idaho.
