Sonja Griffin Evans
Sonja Griffin Evans is an international Cultural Heritage Artist born and raised in Beaufort, South Carolina.

As a prolific mix media artist, she incorporates items such as tin, wood and other found materials in her art. She is also adept at painting the vibrantly colored art on canvas that is acknowledged as the traditional Gullah style; by applying texture to her canvas and her masterful choice of color, she takes her art a step further to convey more depth and feeling.Most in stock items ship in 0 to 5 business depending upon the shipping method selected during checkout.
