Known for his assertive brushstrokes and bold, expressive color, Patrick Puckett creates commanding paintings that balance stillness with underlying energy. His figures often appear at rest, yet their environments pulse with vibrancy and movement. Through direct eye contact and dynamic settings, his subjects project a quiet confidence and inner vitality. Each figure embodies a sense of self-assurance that mirrors the artist’s unapologetic and decisive painting technique.

Puckett’s work draws from a life lived in the American South, resulting in visual compositions that feel both personal and inventive. His paintings are not direct representations, but rather carefully constructed interpretations shaped by memory, place, and experience.

Puckett earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Southern Mississippi in 2002, where he studied under professor James Meade. He currently lives and works in Jackson, Mississippi.

This exhibition marks a continued and significant relationship between the artist and the gallery, highlighting the evolution of Puckett’s distinctive voice in contemporary figurative painting.

Come see Daze of Our Lives through May 31 at the gallery. We are open Tuesday - Saturday 10am-5pm, Sunday 12pm-4pm, and by appointment.

We are excited to have a Chloe Alexander piece in the Affordable Art Fair

“My work is a form of story-telling. Inspired by the rich, high contrast illustrations found in illuminated texts, graphic novels, and children’s fairy taleshe often-whimsical imagery and characters that I create are meant to provoke a sense of nostalgia and familiarity within the viewer. I love printmaking because as a process based medium, it requires constant problem solving that influences the image making process. In tandem with the history of print as an art form, I aspire to communicate using visual language, which can transcend the prescriptive and often ephemeral nature of spoken words. My hope is that a broad audience is able to access the universality of the motifs that I employ, and once immersed in these visual narratives, will then add to, alter, or reimagine the intent of the imagery based on their own assumptions or personal experiences.” ~ Chloe Alexander

Chloe Alexander is an Atlanta-based printmaker who works in various techniques to create multilayered, one-of-a-kind prints and drawings. Chloe obtained both her BFA and M. Ed. from Georgia State University and has since exhibited her work widely, including at Claire Oliver Gallery in Harlem, the Print Center New York, and the Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair in London.

Patrick Puckett’s work will be at the Affordable Art Fair.

“Puckett uses a very consciously naive sense of representation and an intentional use of abstraction- details of a figure or a setting are not always refined, shadows are rendered deliberately dark in places, proporations not always worked out evenly. Nevertheless, there is an immediate familiarity with these scenes.”
- Jeanne Claire van Ryzin, Austin American Statesman, July 18, 2013.

Patrick Puckett was born in Jackson, Mississippi in 1979 and moved to Austin, Texas in 2005. Studying under professor James Meade at the University of Southern Mississippi, he received his bachelor degree in fine arts in 2002. Puckett’s paintings are visual inventions culled from a life lived in the South. When he’s not painting he works as a graphic designer, drinks beer, and listens to Elvis. In 2022, Puckett moved back to Jackson, MS where he maintains a studio.

Come see us at the Affordable Art Fair, where we will feature the beautiful work of Julia Lucey.

As an Artist-in-Residence at Kala Art Institute, Julia has focused on traditional etching techniques and aquatint to create images dealing with the evolving issues of wildlife, its dissolution, and the attempt by many to direct its path. She has exhibited her work throughout the United States.
