Brian Chan

I strive to be what I call a "luminary warrior," an artist and philosopher who fervently discovers and portrays beauty, goodness, and truth. Art making is a deeply reflective and meditative process for me. I love to work in charcoal, acrylic, and ink. My art is inspired by my faith in God because it's how I see the world. Being part of LELA is important to me because of its mission for peace. In the Hebrew Scriptures, the word for peace is "shalom," a peace defined with flourishing. I hope my art will contribute to flourishing.
