Meet Edwin Lockridge
Edwin Lockridge joined our Artist Collective in May 2019. He is a Nashville native and has over 50 years of experience in fine arts, including mixed media and graphic arts. Despite many years of experience, he says he has “only scratched the surface.” While Edwin regularly creates with a wide variety of tools and materials, he gathers inspiration everywhere he goes and claims the world as his preferred medium. Edwin took classes at Watkins College of Art and enjoys connecting with other artists. Although Edwin has been experiencing homelessness for the past 3 years, he is hopeful for his future and art career. With the income generated from his art sales, he plans to reinvest in his craft and find stable housing.
In a seemingly effortless manner, Edwin Lockridge respectfully presents his collection of works that humbly declare the artists’ innate talent.
“The revenue from my art allows me to buy my medicine. It is serious stuff that keeps me alive. Don't give up and don’t let nobody take your joy.”
— Daybreak Artist, Edwin Lockridge
