Calvin Coleman

"My work is motivated by movement and color, which is uniquely designed to Inspire, Encourage and Ignite the senses." A native of Hampton, Virginia, Calvin Coleman attended Lincoln University where he received his degree in Early Childhood Education.

In recognizing his God given talent, Calvin has been blessed to create works of art that seem to speak to the audience. Infusing movement and color in many of his works, Calvin sets out to capture ones feelings, and emotions in his paintings.
Over the last decade, he has perfected his use of various mediums such as: watercolor, oil, charcoal, acrylic and his unique collage technique that combines fabric and textured paper with acrylic and oil paints to create works of spectacular richness and texture.

The messages that Coleman's works relay are global as he strongly
believes that his spiritual beliefs are global and has the power to transcend cultural, ethnic and national barriers. He has been commissioned to illustrate poetry and children books, furnish works for corporate settings, and offered exhibitions at various galleries and expos.

Calvin continues to perfect his craft and hold on to that which is dear to him.
