Tammy Groves Thornton is an artist from Memphis, TN who defines her style as a combination of expressionism and postimpressionism, permeated with hints of abstract, to create her own style of art of colorful, joyful expressions. Tammy thinks of her art as a catalyst of change; inspiring and uplifting the spirit and encouraging the heart to love. Her work is comprised of bright colors creating feelings of joy and expressing her love of love. Her work reflects diversity and the embracing of our diversities: race and ethnicity, culture, and social. Her work reflects the beauty in being a woman, embodying strength, confidence, independence, individuality, and love of self. She hopes to inspire young people, especially girls, to see themselves as capable of doing and being anything they choose to be. She hopes to change the world one brushstroke at a time, one heart at a time, one moment at a time, making it a better place than she found it. Current exhibitions include “Evolution II” at the Office @ Uptown and “Save the Girls” at Avenue Coffee, both in Memphis, TN.
