Emily Anderson Coleman

Art is my chance to highlight the extraordinary in everyday sights. People are my favorite subject matter. I love capturing heartfelt expressions or complex movements and enhancing them with vivid colors and exaggerated lines. Thanks for taking a look at the world through my lens.

 

Gina Jackson

A portion of sales will benefit the miniseries Back From the Dead, which employs and supports local mental health survivors, veterans and entrepreneurs. Artist and actress Gina Jackson works to share hope and healing through the visual arts, and she prays the connections you feel stay with you, encouraging you to look to Jesus always. Gift a piece to a friend or treat yourself to beauty that will uplift you on the daily.

Gina is an internationally award-winning mixed media visual artist originally from Texas, now located in Franklin, TN.

She is obsessed with bringing beauty from her subconscious to life, incorporating her faith in Jesus, capturing the spiritual side of life.

Her honesty, mixed with years of study with renowned artists, imparts a unique quality to her paintings. She works earnestly with thick layers to create rich textures, capturing the drama and elegance of everyday life.

Notable influences of Gina’s style include German Expressionism and Impressionism, along with her late mentors and respected artists, Mark Weber and David Gross. A few of her professional achievements include her work, “Invisible Forces,” which received a semi­-finalist award from the international Engage Art Contest. In addition, she has won Grand Prize and First Prize from the MCIS contests in Kansas City, Missouri, and FASO Fav 15.

Gina’s work is international via “The Child of Christmas” children’s book written by Mark Potter. Her original and commissioned paintings reside both stateside and internationally. Gina enjoys working in mixed media. Her materials often include oil, acrylic, charcoal, oil pastel, rhinestones, and pastel, occasionally including unexpected elements such as art materials often used in childhood.
