My name is Brutalwares. I’m an artist that loves to paint concrete.
Why do I love to paint concrete? I’m obsessed with Brutalist Architecture.
My goal is to share that passion with the world, challenge a few perceptions
on how people view Brutalist Architecture and the interesting beauty of
concrete, and perhaps help them see it in a more positive light, as I do.
The mundane has never looked so beautiful.
