Bay Village, on the westside of Cleveland, Ohio is where the massive Brabant conglomerate is located. A client-driven graphic designer by day, I began designing the screen prints in 2004 as a pure creative outlet. The prints are mainly comprised of photographic elements with illustration mixed in to create the desired effect. I like to explore where the 'fact' of the photographs and the 'fiction' of photo manipulation & illustration meet, creating imagery that tells a new story.

"Brabant explores the multiple possibilities of alien abduction and other perils of the sky in his boldly colored serigraph prints. Cows, dogs, children and trucks all ascend to the heavens, while other characters seem to take refuge in the sights of the sky and its possibilities for escape."
- Tracy Zollinger, Columbus Dispatch

If you'd like to know when I have new prints to offer or some other big news...
