Arthur Brouthers is a multidisciplinary artist from the United States. Born and raised in Charleston, South Carolina, he eventually established his primary studio in Charlotte, North Carolina. Before fully committing to the visual arts, Brouthers pursued a successful career in music that allowed him to travel across the country, though he eventually returned to painting to fulfill a deeper creative need. His background is largely self-taught, characterized by over a decade of rigorous experimentation with various mediums and environmental factors to achieve highly specific textures and visual effects.

The artist is recognized for a signature fluid painting technique that mimics complex natural phenomena, such as microscopic organisms or celestial bodies. By manipulating acrylic paint, spray paint, and inks with oversized brushes and custom tools, he creates intricate, cellular-like separations. In his figurative pieces, Brouthers applies between four and fifteen layers of clear resin to create a sense of three-dimensional depth, often using his abstract patterns as the skin for human subjects. This process reflects a fascination with the marriage of physical bodies and spiritual energy, as well as the limited control humans have over the natural world. His work has gained significant reach, appearing in major Hollywood films like Get Out and being exhibited at international venues such as Art Basel Switzerland.
