Jodi Gaines is a contemporary artist based in South Florida whose work in acrylic, oil, and mixed media blends abstract realism and impressionism. Influenced by artists like Monet, Van Gogh, and Mary Cassatt, she explores themes of beauty, empathy, lineage, resilience, and everyday life.

A lifelong creator who grew up in the Florida Keys, Jodi’s path has included music, digital design, entrepreneurship, and a national tour as a singer-songwriter. Yet painting has always been her quiet constant—a way to reconnect with memory, emotion, and the self.

In 2024, she returned fully to her art, not to begin again, but to return home.
