Vendor & Silent Auction Artists for the 2nd Annual Inspirational Art Gala
Steven Carroll Bio:
Steven Carroll, a native of Decatur, Georgia, is a contemporary abstract artist. His childhood involvement in music and art cultivated an interest in drawing and painting. Unlike most artists studying art, Steven attended Tennessee State University and received a Bachelor's in Business Administration and a Master's in Educational Technology.
In 2016, Steven began an entrepreneurial spirit by investing and birthing his own art company, Inspirational Designs By Dre. The company encompasses two different sectors: paint parties (publicly and privately) and contemporary art paintings. WSB-TV Atlanta Channel 2 Action News website featured Steven's paintings from the March 2019 Pancake and Booze Atlanta Art Show. Steven's popular painting of African American abolitionist Frederick Douglass is a favorite of his audience. Steven captured the hearts and minds of art enthusiasts with motivating messages of inspiration through his contemporary abstract art.
In 2021, Steven was inspired to give back to the community and nation through art & culture by establishing a 501(c)3 nonprofit called Inspired Community Creations Corp.
Amber Nichole Bio:
Amber Nicole grew up in College Park, Georgia and still resides in the Atlanta metropolitan area, which has heavily influenced her artwork. Her artistic perspective emphasizes the relationship between Black women and their experience caring for their natural hair. Since 2013, Amber Nicole has been rocking her natural hair unapologetically and uses her art as a gateway to encourage other women to embrace their hair too. As a child, she suffered from low self-esteem and negative self-perception issues that stemmed from being teased about her hair. Today, Amber Nicole encourages young Black women to find love and appreciation in their curls by putting a spin on how she would like society to view black hair. She does this by incorporating sensory materials that also speak to her passions and interests.
Growing up in Atlanta, Amber Nicole was no stranger to the impact of music. She spent her weekends riding through the city with her father listening to classic artists that would forever change her life such as Prince, OutKast, Ray Charles, Maze, Chaka Khan, and so many more talented musicians. Her passion for music fuels the themes behind her concept, which highlight the juxtaposition between music and hair. She specifically uses vinyl records because of her attraction to the etching & pressing process.
In 2016, Amber Nicole graduated from Georgia State University, receiving a B.A in psychology, and began her career in Human Resources. Although she did not pursue her art ambition during her undergraduate years, she still remained fixated on her artistic aspirations from her younger years. In 2021, she established her studio and transitioned from her corporate career to her running her creative art business, full-time.
Amber Nicole has been featured in magazines such as the Atlanta Tribune (2022), Voyage ATL (2022), Northside Neighbor (2022), and WABE 90.1FM NPR: Speaking of the arts - City Lights (2022) . She recently debuted her My Hair Speaks Volumes Solo Exhibition (2022) and has participated in local art shows such as Pancakes & Booze Art Show (2021-22), Black Art Expo (2022), For the Love of Hip Hop Art Show (2022), The South Got Something to Say: Virtual Exhibition (2022), and the Decatur Arts Festival (2022) - to name a few.
Currently, she focuses on building her studio’s brand to help spread her hair-love message across the country. In her spare time, she helps local entrepreneurs further their businesses by providing human resource consultations and assistance. Although her main focus has transitioned from boardrooms to art rooms, she still takes pride in helping others find equality in the workplace.
Anthony Carr Bio:
Originally from North Carolina I have lived in Atlanta, Ga for 15 years. Although I have a bachelors in Visual Art with a concentration in Graphic Design, I have been painting and drawing for over 30 years.
As a self-taught artist, I started when I was very young drawing my own comic books by the age of 12 and cartoon drawings for the local newspaper. As time went on I learned how to airbrush, started painting murals in high school and created art using other materials including sculpture, oil painting, etc.
As someone that has been an artist all of my life, being able to imagine what you wanted and being able to bring that idea to life has been a gift that I will always be grateful for.
Silent Auction Artists for the 2nd Annual Inspirational Art Gala
Gyanmani Ray Bio:
I am Valencia Ray, art representative of Gyanmani Ray. Gyanmani Ray is a renowned abstract artist from Dhulikhel, Nepal. He has been working in this field for more than 40 years. During this time, he has participated in many solo and group exhibitions in Nepal, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, South Korea, Pakistan, India, Japan, South Africa and North America. He has helped preserve and protect Nepal’s rich heritage by being involved in various projects. Like, the restoration of art works displayed in national museums and cataloguing traditional Nepalese waterspouts through paintings. The common theme through out his work is his immense love of the mountains and culture of this unique country.
Thornton Brown Bio:
Born in the nation’s capital but bred in Decatur (where its greater) since his high school years, Thornton T Brown IV is a mixed media artist with a knack for nuance. Never formally trained but always in tune with the gift, being encapsulated by Atlanta’s art scene for over 15 years gave Thornton the opportunity to explore his talents and develop his own unique style. Inspired by the likes of Miya Bailey, Paper Frank, Dr. Dax, and other fellow artists (who’s works are apart of his extensive personal collection) Thornton uses the fine artistry of Film and the scenic nature of Hip-Hop culture to create vivid paintings that connect you to special moments in time. A committed participant in the “Art-that-creates-art” mindset, Thornton’s priorities are to inspire others and in a feeling that only art can provide.
After receiving acrylic markers and canvas as a birthday gift, Thornton transitioned from pen and paper to the aforementioned medium, where he’s found extreme success. Thornton continues to hone his craft between family life and full-time employment with Delta Air Lines as an Avionics Aviation Mechanic.
Andre M. Henderson Bio:
Born in New York City to a highly creative and intellectual family who immersed him in science, visual, and literary arts, Andre' was constantly inspired by intuition and a desire to capture emotions from nature and the human spirit.
Whether as a designer for Nike or a video producer, the world of artistic expression has always been a part of him. His paintings unfold on their own through an intuitive & innovative process.
