LINNIE BROWN

Linnie Brown is a painter who lives and works in Lehi, Utah. Her work, over the last twenty years, has centered on abstraction, complex layers, and the merging of disparate objects or time periods. Brown’s paintings, in more recent years, seek to convey specific and personal subject matter, with fragments of landscape and architecture from her own life. Her densely layered acrylic paintings reference accumulated memories and the process of navigating one’s identity.

Originally from Portland, Oregon, Brown relocated to Utah to study painting and art education at Brigham Young University. She went on to receive her MFA degree from the University of Utah. Brown maintains an active exhibition schedule and shows her work regularly throughout Utah. Most recently, her work was included in group shows at the St. George Art Museum, the Springville Museum of Art, and in a 2024 solo exhibition at A Gallery. In 2020, she received an Artist Career Advancement Scholarship from the Utah Division of Arts & Museums. In addition to her studio work, Brown teaches part-time at Utah Valley University.
