Brandon Brown is an art dealer at LewAllen galleries in Santa Fe. We met last summer on Canyon Road and I thought he’d be a great podcast guest to share a gallerist’s perspective.
In this episode, we discuss the role of art galleries, working with artists and collectors, and answer listeners’ questions, most notably, “How do I get to show my work in a gallery?“
A few artists mentioned in the episode are David Jonason, Forrest Moses, Fritz Scholder and Jivan Lee.
Moses and Lee both have shows up at LewAllen for the next several weeks.

I recently spoke with the multi-award-winning oil painter, Eric Bowman. You might be familiar with his studio landscape and western paintings, but if you haven’t given his work a deeper study, you should. His figure-oriented pieces and plein air sketches are also worth a long look.
