Jonarra Swanson debuts "Paintbrush Legacy" at Gallery Axis

Paintbrush Legacy will be showing at Gallery Axis from February 5 - April 7

This show uplifts the great words of Audre Lorde "When I dare to be powerful to be strength in service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I'm afraid" to quotes by Martin Luther King himself. Paintbrush Legacy inspires us reclaim the power of our voices and celebrate the inherent worthiness of our dreams. A beautiful dance between poetic power and vibrant think pieces. Jonarra beautifully displays visual acts of creating a new world with a powerful female voice.

MODERN CONTEMPORARY ARTIST & INTENTIONAL CURATOR

“Blue is not just a color; it is a universal constant. It is the water that sustains us and the sky that covers us—a canvas we all share.”

JONARRA SWANSON

Meet the Artist

Based in Seattle, Washington, contemporary artist & intentional curator Jonarra Swanson uses her creative practice to drive meaningful change, solve problems, and strengthen community bonds. Her introduction into the arts was like anyone, as a child she was creating colorful landscapes on coloring book pages and homemade greeting cards for loved ones. Now, she is a self taught artist whose work is a fusion of poetry, expressionism and figurativism.  With a passion for human connection, she delves into the intricate balance of self-expression and community connection, seeking to capture the profound essence of humanity.

Her compelling work champions the idea that our universal human experience is the bedrock for equality, inviting viewers to perceive the inherent flow of connection among all people.

Jonarra's commitment to fostering connection extends beyond her personal art. She empowers individuals, businesses, and organizations to connect with art - whether through curated collections, creative strategy, or cultural programming. Further demonstrating her dedication to community and empowerment, Jonarra founded MUVA, a unique retail space in Seattle that supports creative mothers by giving them a vital platform to sell their work and expand their entrepreneurial venture

As her career grows, so does a community who honors connection, love and growth.
