Brendan Lehman (b. 1997) is an oil painter, illustrator, and designer based in Boston, MA. He is also the founder of Aspire Art Panels and Liquid Box Design.

​​

Brendan's artistic journey began with drawing cartoons in grade school and was reignited in high school through street art and comic illustrations, leading him to pursue his love for art in the creative industry after two years of formal education at Lesley University and Tufts SMFA.

 

Combining layers of spontaneous brushstrokes and dynamic textures, Brendan's work showcases provocative figures and faces that challenge the boundaries of conventional oil painting. Through this approach, he explores the human form—both anatomical and psychological—expressing themes of internal energy, spirit, and vulnerability. Striking a balance between intuition and intention, visceral imagery emerges where chaos and clarity coexist.
