Isabelle Brourman (born 1992or1993 [1] ) is an American mixed media artist, known for her bold style of courtroom sketches of high-profile defendants including Donald Trump and Johnny Depp. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] During the 2024 presidential campaign, and after the attempted assassination of Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, Brourman arranged two sittings with the candidate at Mar-a-Lago in which she observed his ear and painted his portrait. The first sitting was conducted during an interview of Trump by former New York magazine Washington correspondent Olivia Nuzzi. [7] [8]

As of August 2025, Brourman is covering the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, [9] a project which she views as an ongoing portrait of President Trump. [10] Her documentation in New York City’s immigration courts serves as the first and only artistic account to emerge from the waiting rooms and courtrooms of 26 Federal Plaza.
