Born the second of three sons to John
and Ella Briskie in 1961, Brian The Brush was raised in the abandoned subway
tunnels beneath Rochester, New York's cultural district. Nourished on a
steady diet of British Invasion pop music, Royal Crown Cola, Cap'n Crunch
cereal and The Addams Family TV show, it was at an early age
that young Brian's idiosyncrosies took shape; and it was determined that
this "not-quite-right" boy would probably grow to become a not-quite-right
adult.
With often overlapping careers in advertising,
signs and graphics, auto show promoting, custom paint, pinstriping and airbrushing,
custom car design and even professional product endorsements, all of Brian
The Brush's endevours have one thing in common; Good design.
Planning a sign project or a world-class
car show. Launching a new online company or striping a '58 Buick. Preparing
for a lecture or gilding a window. It all boils down to design.

| On May 3rd, my father passed away very
unexpectedly while leaving Florida with my mom. They were moving back to
New York permanently, and I had promised my dad I'd take him to see the
Sign museum this summer; something he was excited about and brought up in
conversation almost weekly. My family has seen a tremedous outpouring of
support from friends and associates throughout this difficult time, for
which we're grateful.
My blanket response to the offers of
"anything we can do" would be, rather than cards, flowers or gifts,
please make a donation, no matter how small or large, to The American Sign
Museum in memory of John Briskie.
