Conservative envy of liberal tastemaking is an old story now, but the tides are turning. I’d like to bring your attention to an artist whose work over the past few years has been to create and cultivate a movement-defining aesthetic for the new right: Leigh Brown. She’s been capturing dissident speakers and public intellectuals in portrait since 2018, including Alex Jones, Peter Thiel, Clarence Thomas, Curtis Yarvin, Darren Beattie, Lana Del Rey, Sam Hyde, and, believe it or not, yours truly. You can support her work through her website and follow her on Twitter and Instagram for more.
