Art has always been a part of my life, a journey I first began in high school and continued to explore in college with aspirations of becoming a full-time artist. Becoming a mother and the wife to a Sailor shifted my path, but the dream never faded. I found new ways to nurture my passion over the years by sharing my love for creating and painting with my children and encouraging their own artistic exploration. My creative spirit was rekindled during the stressful time of the pandemic, as the world slowed down, I seized the opportunity. Now, my art is a celebration of that renewed passion. Each piece is not just a painting; it's a reflection of my personal journey.

Art with soul

  • Painting of a gothic-style church with tall spires and a circular window in the center, reflected in water.

  • A digital painting of a lion's face with green eyes, a purple nose, and a dark mane, blending into an abstract, textured background.

  • A mural of a jazz musician playing a saxophone, wearing a bow tie and a hat, with the words 'Harlem' and 'Sal' in the background.

  • Abstract painting featuring a pink background with drips of various colors, dotted lines, and a dark silhouette of a skateboarder in mid-air.

 

Artist Showcase

We are excited to share that a curated collection of beckijoh’s paintings is currently on public display at Crazy Johnnie’s Food & Spirits in Harahan, LA. This exhibition offers a wonderful, tangible counterpoint to the online gallery, allowing you to experience the true scale, depth, and specific texture of the original artworks, many of which draw inspiration from iconic New Orleans architecture and the city's vibrant culture.

Seeing these physical canvases is often critical for prospective collectors who wish to fully assess how the art will integrate into their space. We strongly encourage all interested patrons and local enthusiasts to visit Crazy Johnnie’s to see the pieces in person and grab an exceptional bite to eat.
