Justin Gaffrey worked for many years as a chef and small restaurant owner in Santa Rosa Beach, FL. He has had a number of creative endeavors over the years, including furniture building, but eventually he jumped head-first into the world of painting. Justin is an inventive artist who paints with the very materials he has designed, engineered, and produced. Justin continues an artistic journey along a path traveled by a long history of artists unafraid to take risks and affect art conventions of their day.

With a demanding hunger for learning and experimentation, Justin Gaffrey pushes to constantly evolve his work- which most consistently depicts coastal landscapes, wildlife, and the exploration of the human condition. After carving out a name for himself in the world of coastal acrylic painting, Justin has turned his sights to his other true love: the West. His inimitable style of sculptural painting is perfectly designed for the jagged peaks of mountains, clear snow melt, and velvety red rocks of the West. As Justin has expanded his presence in the Western art world, his animal wildlife work has become a true signature to individual and business clients alike.
