Colleen Browning (born 1929, Cregg, County Cork, Ireland) is an American realist painter. Browning attended London's Slade School of Art before moving to the United States in 1949, becoming an American citizen a year later. She was a major figure in the contemporary realist movement in the United States. In 2003, after surviving serious illness, she gave a substantial collection of her paintings to the Southern Alleghenies Museum of Art. Her oil paintings are mostly of women set in various indoor and outdoor settings. In the past fifteen years she has painted her own massive frames as an incorporated part of the painting.
