Davariz Broaden: where the grass is always green #3, 2022, acrylic and oil on canvas, 60 x 48 in.

Detroit based artist Davariz Broaden paints with a muted color palette, mixing acrylic and oils to convey softness, beauty and love. His subjects are a mix of gatherings, quotidian environments, often culled from his imagination and reflecting on his own personal memories and family life. Broaden both captures an intimate moment and tells the larger narrative of the black experience. The pensive nature of his subjects allows the viewer to spend time with the expressive figures and the intricacies of their environments. Formerly trained as a fashion designer, his attention to textures, colors, and fabrics are evident through his deliberate brush strokes. Broaden is self taught and began painting in 2021. At just 23 years old, he is quietly producing an impressive body of work that centers around humanity, nostalgia and the tradition of figurative painting.
