About Justin Garcia

Native Houstonian Justin Garcia learned as a young boy that he would succeed in life with a combination of self-reliance and an insatiable curiosity about his place in the world. In school, he received a solid foundation of practical knowledge. But his commitment to painting allowed him to discover his artistic voice. He received a warm reception from the art community, and the evolution of his works began to gather greater recognition among collectors and art appreciators in Houston. Now, Garcia’s works grace the walls of many prestigious spaces across the country. Garcia believes that art is a vehicle for global transformation, and often donates his art and his time, to numerous charities. He creates art programs for young children, and teaches older students the business of art…all in the interest of supporting human connection through artistic endeavor.
