Stephen Brown, born in 1947, is a British painter renowned for his luminous coastal scenes and expressive landscapes. Working primarily in oil, he often paints en plein air to capture the shifting qualities of natural light. His work is characterised by a warm, optimistic palette, confident brushwork and a strong sense of place—particularly along the South West coast, where many of his most recognisable paintings are set.
