Eugene Quinn's paintings are featured in the Coquina Gallery. Eugene Quinn's paintings are like looking at a journal entry from a lifetime of painting. He is an artist gypsy and has received numerous awards for his work across the East coast. He now resides in Jacksonville Beach, where he can continue to express and observe the beauty around him. Quinn seems to have always been an artist. Quinn was thrilled to be offered a painting for his college's first exhibition. He began to imagine a life where he could make a living and enjoy his art. He studied art and history at Providence College before he was enrolled at the Art Students League. The Ridgewood Art Institute then took him under its wing. He began selling his art at local shows and soon expanded to New England. He soon established his gallery in Cape Ann's historic colony. He returned to Florida after years of participating in winter Florida art events and established the Coquina Studio, Jacksonville Beach. Quinn paints because he loves beauty. The Studio is the same as Rockport MA's ocean.

My roots are in Nashville. I attended the University of South Carolina as well as the University of North Florida. My work has been displayed in private and public collections for decades. I was honored to serve as Artist in Residence in Duval County. I currently work in Riverside's beautiful CoRK Art District. The human experience will not be exhausted by art, no matter how mined or routed. There are many new ways to paint and discover connections. Artists have a purpose. They highlight the beauty in an otherwise ugly world. Truth to me is an artist's interpretation of a lie. People, faces and figures seem to be the focus of my paintings. My paintings are drawn towards people, faces, and the figure because I feel I'm looking for an emotional connection. I also want it to speak about us, our history, and our humor. I will use simple gestures that can be easily recognized, subtle nuances, and body language that is suggestive.
