She has won numerous art and academic awards, including the 1996 Outstanding Senior of the Year in Art. In 1996 she was a recipient of the North Carolina Regional Artist Project Grant for her work visually documenting Southern oral traditions. She later served on the NC Regional Artist Grant Panel, once serving as Chair of the committee.

A working artist whose paintings and mixed media collages have been selected for exhibitions throughout the Southeast, Ginger has also had a number of solo exhibitions.

      

Currently Ginger is painting portraits of children, inspired by her own grandchildren whose portraits are currently on display at Buffalo Creek Gallery in Shelby, NC. She also displays her funky animal portraits and landscapes. "We live on a farm and the animals are handy and fascinating subjects."

Ginger and her husband Ronnie reside in rural Cleveland County. Daughter, Katie and husband Greg live nearby with their children, Cooper and Parker. Son Josh and his wife Brooke live in Charlotte with their children, Bryce and Taylor.

All portraits are oil on gallery-wrap canvas. The sides of the canvas will be finished and does not require framing, however, you may frame the portrait if you prefer. I paint from photographs.
Prices are approximate depending on complexity and number of figures in the photograph.
