Midtown:
The Art of Inhabitation

Beyond the landscape of tended gardens and Victorian architecture, wide avenues lined with perfectly spaced old-growth trees, and businesses just a few blocks from the neighborhoods, there’s something about the people who consciously choose to live in Midtown Sacramento that creates a unique and magnetic cultural phenomenon.

Finding inspiration in Midtown was not difficult. Deciding which images to actually paint was. For months Brooke roamed the streets with her camera, simply observing and reacting, balancing intention with opportunity. Of course there were specific themes that needed to be painted, but for the most part she just let it happen the way it does in real life, uncontrolled and beautiful in its own right.
