Bohanahan Folk Art

by Brian Bohanan

For over 10 years I have shared my artwork throughout the southeast at Art Festivals, Galleries,and Workshops. I am a Folk Artist and taught myself through years without formal art studies. Life my greatest teacher allows me to tell my story and share who I am. Staying true my life’s journey, influences and lessons allows my experiences to spark the creativity in my work. My art is who I am and fuels a passion to constantly create. My goal is to speak through my works. I feel art is a window into the soul and allows you to show a little bit of whats inside in each story.

I am a resident of Shelby County Alabama with my wife Meghan and three children Turner, Clay, and Lanie……as well as a smorgasbord of critters.

I hope my work inspires and speaks to you

To create works of art using materials otherwise discarded energizes me to turn life into something that has died. Each “Tree of Life” I paint on reclaimed wood feels like a renewal of purpose is captured. It gives me great joy when the vision calls me to this and I strive to achieve a high percentage of recycled artwork.
