Bryant Small

Jersey City, New Jersey

Bryant Small is an abstract alcohol ink painter whose passion is driven by color.

Bryant Small is an Award-Winning artist and independent curator who lives in Jersey City, NJ and balances his art with a social marketing and media career in New York City. Bryant has a love of culture, color and all things sparkling. In his art, he loves to toe the line of free abstraction with vibrant color blending and the push beyond pretty. His Alcohol Ink pieces are free flowing, unpredictable and levitate from the page.

Recognized as a Conception Arts, Global Art Collective 2020 and 2017 Award of Excellence Winner and selected as one of International Art Market Magazine’s Gold List of Top Emerging Contemporary Artists, Bryant has shown his work in several collective and individual shows throughout the United States and has pieces that are part of Private Collections around the Globe. He lives by the words: “Broken Crayons Still Color... and a little glitter and sparkle NEVER hurt anybody!”.

Inspired by so many things - from fashion and make up artists and drag artists to nature to food, Bryant looks at what other artists are doing...how are they pushing the envelope. But most of all, he is inspired by COLOR.

To Bryant, art is freedom of expression and a connection to spirit. Art allow him to be his most complete self but also reflects the inexplicable feelings and emotions that aren’t always shared outwardly. Art and the Arts is the warmth of the sun, the sweetness and tang in lemonade and the faint scent that brings a childhood memory to the surface. #ArtIsLifeArtistLife
