About the Artist

Rani Garner is a dedicated, career artist living in rural Georgia. Originally from Phoenix, Arizona, she earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Arizona State University. After living and painting abroad and on both coasts, her art has become all about capturing the essence of light. Early morning walks and visits to the coast are the major inspirations for her paintings, which are prized by collectors who are reminded of their own meaningful moments of communion with light and what it symbolizes to them.  Another artist has said of her work, "It is as if she has taken the best parts of a day and condensed them down into one single, perfect moment.”

Rani’s paintings are represented by galleries throughout the Southeast including Columbus GA, Ponte Vedra Beach FL, Saint Simons Island GA and Beaufort SC. Her private studio is in the small town of Buena Vista in west central Georgia.

“I think that growing up in the Desert Southwest made me appreciate trees. Most people probably don’t notice them, but they’ve become one of the main subjects of my landscape paintings.” - Rani
