about
Hi, I'm Ginny
Welcome to my Studio!
I'm a painter, wife to my teacher/coach husband, mother of two teenagers, and our dog Memphis the English Springer Spaniel. We live in middle TN and I paint in my studio, which was meant to be our dining room and is right in the heart of our home.
I don't remember a time when art and creativity wasn't a part of life. I grew up in a home full of art making and story telling. I come from a long line of women who were artists and creatives and way ahead of their time for pursuing their passions.
My style of art is winsome and illustrative. I create whimsical paintings full of nostalgia for a simpler time, focusing on ordinary moments and subjects that have a story to tell. I enjoy focusing on the beauty in the ordinary and everyday parts of our lives.
I love painting!
Actually, I love the whole process from creative ideas and rough sketches to creating collections, releasing work into the world and even the business side of things. Painting and having a creative business are the perfect combination for me.
I believe that Art is timeless and for everyone. We can create a home that is undeniably ours when we fill every room with art.
