Jack Browning (b. 1997, London, England) is a contemporary painter whose distinctive interpretations of Western culture resonate through authentic portrayals rooted in personal relationships and cross-cultural experiences. Initially focused on traditional realism, Jack refined his approach toward expressive figurative painting after studying with renowned artists, notably Joshua LaRock, whose mentorship deeply influenced his use of color and dynamic composition.
 

Jack’s transatlantic perspective, shaped by music tours, extensive research, and friendships across the American West, allows him to thoughtfully reinterpret classic Western imagery, moving beyond stereotypes toward genuine representation. His cinematic color palettes—ochre-infused blues reminiscent of vintage film—highlight his fascination with how the West has traditionally been perceived through media, while simultaneously celebrating contemporary narratives.
 

Jack’s international recognition includes selection for the prestigious Society of Graphic Fine Art Exhibition in London, and his notable inclusion in the Taos Art Museum’s 2024 Summer Gala and Mark Maggiori and Petecia Le Fawnhawk-Maggiori's 2025 Far West exhibition. Praised by collectors, press and artists alike for his rhythmic and emotionally resonant style, Jack Browning is rapidly establishing himself as a compelling new voice bridging traditional Western themes with fresh authenticity.
