Ginger Lianne is an abstract impressionist artist whose work explores the intersection of emotion, healing, and self-discovery. Through expressive brushstrokes, layered textures, and a rich, intuitive color palette, her paintings serve as a visual reflection of resilience and transformation.

Drawing from personal experiences with trauma, grief, and renewal, Ginger’s art is both a deeply personal journey and an open invitation for others to find solace and connection. Her work speaks to those who have known struggle but seek beauty in the process of healing.

She says, “my art is a reflection of healing, emotion, and self-discovery. Through abstract impressionism, I translate feelings into color, movement, and texture, creating work that speaks to the unspoken. Each brushstroke is an intuitive expression, a release of grief, resilience, and transformation.”

Painting has been my way of processing trauma and finding peace in chaos. I am especially drawn to the ocean, using abstract seascapes to mirror the emotional tides of life, sometimes turbulent, sometimes calm, always evolving. Layers of paint reflect the depth of human experience, where beauty and struggle coexist.

My goal is to create art that resonates on a soul level, offering comfort, reflection, and connection. Whether it evokes peace, nostalgia, or a sense of renewal, I hope my work reminds others that healing is possible,and that there is beauty in the journey.

Can you tell us about your journey as an artist? How did it all begin?

Three years ago, I started therapy. I was in a deep depression from postpartum, and I finally gathered the courage to seek help. I had always wanted to paint but never seemed to find the time. While navigating my emotions in therapy, my husband bought me all the tools I needed to begin my artistic journey. I quickly started to paint what I felt. I had no prior knowledge of painting and simply used what I knew from drawing with pencil. I didn’t start sharing my work until the beginning of 2024.

How would you describe your art style and how has it evolved over time?

My art style is a mix of abstract expressionism and impressionism. I found my style through practice. I knew I wanted to paint abstractly, and I also loved painting clouds and the ocean. So, I started to blend the two, using lots of small brushstrokes and throwing paint around.

Who or what inspires you the most as an artist?

I’m inspired by emotion and nature. I enjoy going on walks outside, and where I live, there is always something new to explore. I love the ocean, and it plays a big role in my nature-inspired paintings. I also draw from my emotions and past trauma, creating pieces that tell a story of healing, inspiration, and growth. Staying positive and continuously learning are integral parts of my inspiration.

How do you handle creative blocks or periods of self-doubt?

I go through periods of creative blocks at least once a month. I try to take breaks so I don’t feel overwhelmed. When I can not find something to paint I will go outside and take lots of pictures of things that can help inspire me. I’ll start thinking of stories I can tell and how I can portray them into a new piece of work as well.

What are your long-term goals as an artist?

My long term goals as an artist is to make this journey into a career. I’m hoping to have my works in as many peoples homes as possible. I strive to make my work affordable as I genuinely enjoy for everyone to be able to own my art. To be able to quit my serving job and focus on my home life and creating art for a living is my goal for the future.

What advice would you give to emerging artists trying to establish their careers?

My advice to emerging artists trying to establish a career is to keep going. To keep practicing. To be vulnerable and tell your story. Learn about marketing. Perfect your skill. Learn your collector. And don’t be afraid of failure because it’s going to help you grow.

What do you hope people feel or take away when they view your art?

I hope people feel inspired to keep going when they look at my art. I am such a huge advocate for mental health awareness as I deal with it daily. I hope that someone realizes they are not alone with their anxiety or depression. That childhood trauma is so hard to navigate as an adult. I hope my work can help heal someone who needs it.
