Award-Winning Artist & Author:
Alison Jardine

Alison's Website
Alison Jardine grew up in Yorkshire, England and moved to Dallas, Texas with her family in 2003. She studied at the University of London (Bachelor of Arts), University of Texas at Dallas (ATEC), and the College of Visual Art & Design (CVAD) at University of North Texas (MFA, Painting and Drawing). She is a Fellow of the Hambidge Center for Creative Arts & Sciences in Georgia.

Alison works in a broad range of disciplines, including new media, sculpture and painting. Her work establishes a thoughtful juxtaposition between the beauty of nature and man-made, industrial materials. She was selected as a featured artist in Dallas’s Aurora festival in both 2013 and 2015, where she presented her physically immersive digital video environments. Alison has won several awards for her work, including Finalist for the 2016 Hunting Art Prize for Painting & Drawing, The Joann Elliot Bond Memorial Scholarship, Best in Show Award: Annual 500 Expo at 500X Gallery, The Henderson Art Prize, and Grand Prize winner: Art of Elan. The artist’s sculptural cement drawings were featured in New American Paintings (West edition: #126).
Alison’s work has been exhibited across the U.S., including Dallas (Erin Cluley Gallery), New York, San Francisco, Connecticut and Georgia. She was commissioned to create work for a social media art project for the London Olympics in 2012, and her digital art has been featured in several art magazines and on television (CBS 11). In 2013, she founded the Dallas Arboretum Artist in Residence program.

Alison regularly writes and speaks about art, including at the Dallas Museum of Art as part of the State of the Arts panel discussions by KERA (public media for North Texas). Her forthcoming book, Make Great Art on the iPad, will be published this summer in both Europe and the U.S. (Octopus Press, Hachette, London).
 
Alison currently teaches drawing at the University of North Texas.
