“Lazy Susan” is Brenner at his most charmingly figurative painting. The portrait leans into imperfection. A face rendered with thick, expressive strokes, softened grays, muted greens, and that unmistakable yellow orange hair. Her gaze drifts just slightly off center, giving her the nickname that stuck: Lazy Susan. It’s playful, but it’s also tender.
The painting feels like a character study of someone caught mid‑thought. Her striped garment adds rhythm, her features blur into emotion rather than accuracy, and the whole composition hums with Brenner’s signature warmth. She’s quirky, contemplative, and quietly magnetic. The kind of figure who feels familiar even if you’ve never met her.
“Lazy Susan” invites viewers to linger, to smile, to connect. It’s a portrait that doesn’t demand perfection; it celebrates personality. For collectors who love expressive faces, textured surfaces, and art that brings a little humor into a refined space, she’s an unforgettable addition.
