Quiet Corner Art Studio | Original Gouache Pop Art Portraits

Quiet Corner Art Studio is the Omaha-area studio of artist Brett Hodges, creating original gouache Pop Art portraits rooted in contemporary feminine portraiture, Minimalist Pop Art, artist portraits, vintage fashion, bridal imagery, and cultural icons.

Working with a focused black, white, and red palette, each painting is created with clean graphic composition, crisp edges, and a quiet emotional presence. The work is intended for collectors, fine art buyers, contemporary galleries, and art curators interested in original works on paper.
