Artist Bio
Ginnie has combined her love of gardening and her ability in watercolor to create lustrous florals that seem to glow from within. Often painting flowers grown in her gardens, she uses transparent glazes to create the depth and luminosity that are the hallmark of her work. She exhibits in galleries, invitational shows, and outdoor art festivals.
Her longtime hobby of showing dogs trained her eye and led into creating commissioned pet portraits. Painting pets and animals quickly translated into painting people.

She teaches watercolor and acrylic paintig at Forsythe Tech CC,and holds other classes and workshops in the area.
