ABOUT ALISON
Alison is a self-taught, contemporary artist based just outside of the Atlanta area. Influenced by her woodworking father, interiors-loving mother, artist-aunt, and her grandparents whose favorite hobby was fashioning objects out of wood and painting them, Alison fell in love with creating from an early age.
She grew up in the Atlanta area and graduated from the University of Georgia, and later from Mercer Law School. She eventually put down the legal pad for the paintbrush and now paints and raises her four young daughters with her husband in Marietta, Georgia.

ALISON’S INSPIRATION
Painting is a source of joy and life for Alison. Ever in awe of how the arrangement of colors, marks, and texture can draw a viewer in and tell a story, Alison uses layer upon layer to create rich, multidimensional pieces that evoke their own narrative.
She is consistently inspired by her surroundings: her children, traveling, special moments in time, music, nature, scripture, fashion and interiors. Alison pours herself into each piece, but does not want to tell the viewer what to see; rather, she hopes that her work will speak to the viewer’s own experiences, so that they will connect with it in their own way.

Painting is a source of joy and life for Alison. She views her abstracted figures as a celebration of femininity—the uniqueness, as well as the similarities, with which we are created.
