Austin Williams Art
Austin’s artwork is a celebration of the wildlife, landscapes and mythology of rural Georgia. Having grown up on a timber farm in Telfair County that borders the wild Ocmulgee River, his large-format acrylic and oil paintings are caught in that water’s current. They often depict its landscapes and wildlife while drifting between abstraction and realism. The sporting culture of these swamps, red hills, and sandhill plains is another point of inspiration. Austin incorporates classic motifs like parallel and sawtooth lines, crosses, and spirals found in artwork over centuries and across diverse cultures. The result of this blend of styles is unique and timeless like the river that inspires it. He lives in Thomasville and creates chaos painting in his living room surrounded by his wife and children.
