About Our Art

Garnetta Sullivan was raised in Jefferson City, Missouri, where her interest in oil painting began at age 10. She painted her first oil on canvas with the guidance of her soft-spoken artist grandfather, who influenced her life with his art and loving manner. The flame was lit, and she began her lifetime devotion to art.

 

As a young adult, Garnetta moved to Sedalia, Missouri, and obtained her bachelor’s degree in commercial art (summa cum laude) from the University of Central Missouri (UCM). She owns her own design firm, Sullivan Creative, in Sedalia. Garnetta also owns Art Impressions Gallery and Framing located in the historic downtown district of the city.

 

Garnetta’s primary focus in the fine art field is oil on canvas. She has received many awards and scholarships and has been juried into national and regional shows. Captivating portraits of children, realistic close-ups of the natural world such as pebbles, leaves, flowers, and berries, as well as non-objective monotypes created with dramatic lines, exciting texture, and delicious color schemes, are all part of Garnetta’s passions. She also translates many of her color schemes, texture, and lines into warm glass creations.

 

Garnetta is also an accomplished photographer. She uses her photographs as reference material for paintings. Still, sometimes she feels her photograph communicates the image so powerfully the brush could not improve it.

 

As a commercial artist, she creates outstanding designs for logos, brochures, websites, advertising, business cards, postcards, banners, and more.

 

Garnetta’s paintings, photography, and glass can be found in many private and corporate collections nationwide. She feels the best is yet to come and continues to spark the flame of creativity in everything she does.
