In 2015, Rianna Turner made a bold choice-she turned her passion for art into a full-time career. Since then, she has captivated audiences with her vibrant use of color, particularly her signature pink. Known as “The Pink Painter,” Rianna believes pink isn’t just a color; it’s a statement of boldness and bravery.
“Pink is controversial,” Rianna explains. “Hot pink is a love-it-or-hate-it color, and as an artist, it’s my way of being unapologetically rebellious.”What started as a subtle undercoat in her work has grown into a defining feature. “The more pink I add, the freer I feel,” she admits.
For Rianna, pink has vibrant, brave, and fresh qualities she hopes resonate with those who view her art.
“When it comes to fine art, safe is the last thing you should look for. Be bold. Pink is a showstopper.”
Her work is known for its radiant glow, a quality she achieves by balancing fluorescent pinks with soft, creamy tones.
“Pink brings an energy that sets the tone for the entire painting. It’s bright, cheerful, and makes me feel energized,” she shares. “When paired with muted colors, it creates a harmonious glow-vibrant, but not overwhelming.”
Each of Rianna’s pieces begins with an extraordinary foundation-a hidden layer of love and hope.
“I start with a Bible verse painted onto the canvas,” she reveals. “It’s my way of sharing God’s encouragement and love. Even if the verse is hidden under layers of paint, I hope the energy and meaning shine through.” “Fine art should be dramatic, vibrant, and energetic,” she says.
These three words perfectly describe her work, which radiates confidence and joy. If you’re looking for art that dares to be bold and speaks to the heart, Rianna Turner’s creations are a must-see. Her work is available at Pink Pelican Art Gallery in Orange Beach, Hello Gallery in Fairhope, and Hillyer House in Ocean Springs. Take a step into her vibrant worldbecause sometimes, a pop of pink is exactly what your space needs.
