Ginger Fox

"combining the natural with the artificial to create synthetic harmony"

modaustin.charity- support

I experience immediate gratification from creating art. That feeling
along with a twist of fate is surely the reason I became an artist.

At the young age of ten, Ginger and her family moved to a very small
town in the Texas Panhandle where she had the good fortune of
moving in across the street from a family of artists. One Sunday
afternoon after crossing the dusty street, Ginger was invited to
"play in the mud". They dropped a hunk of red clay in front of her,
and without hesitation she sculpted the bust of man.

After that, art supplies and two meals a day awaited me across the
street until I graduated from high school.

She then took her passion for creating to the decorative arts industry
where she spent fifteen years working with leading interior designers.
Ginger explored different mediums and began painting on a larger
scale with murals and trompe l'oeil. In 2001, she continued to reach
deeper within herself to imagine the world and her art in a hyper
realistic, slightly surreal style. At this time she launched into
what was a perfect fit between my minds eye and the canvas,
and created sufficient work to create her first show.

In the summer of 2006, Ginger made a commitment to pursue her
artistic career full time and her style has continued to veer toward
the surreal and describes her paintings and sculptual collages
as "organic surrealism - combining the natural with the artificial to
create synthetic harmony."
