About the Artist

Brian Westphal is a contemporary impressionist painter based in Makati, Metro Manila. Originally from Nevada and California, Brian brings a unique perspective shaped by his background as a computer scientist and his passion for exploring the intersection of technology and art.

His work is characterized by an impressionistic approach that embraces innovation in both technique and subject matter. Working primarily in acrylics, Brian creates pieces from photographs he has taken and digitally modified or deconstructed, developing new technologies and methods in his creative process.

Drawing inspiration from a wide variety of subjects—from nature to ultra-modern architecture—Brian is particularly drawn to modern-natural hybrids and the vibrant cultures of Japan and Italy. His paintings capture the energy and essence of places and moments through bold color and dynamic composition.

A largely self-taught artist, Brian has worked at companies like Apple and Google and co-founded Bad Cafe in Makati with his wife. While painting began as a hobby, he is increasingly dedicating time to developing his artistic practice and exploring new creative territories.
