Miranda Griffin, Mixed Media Artist
Being raised in Memphis, home of blue suede shoes, southern fried chicken, music and the Mighty Mississippi, Miranda has always been influenced by the simple things that surround her. Add a touch of her parents roots of "small town girl" and a "true grit farmer," she will inspire you with her eclectic charm, energy and creativity! Her mission is to encourage, uplift and inspire others, especially through her art.
Always having a desire for art, Miranda’s earliest recollection of drawing is of her chalkboard scenes she drew for her kindergarten classmates. Growing up, she was always creating alongside her mother and both grandmothers, making dolls, sewing costumes, drawing, painting and crafting.
Over the course of her life, Miranda has taken numerous art classes, ranging from pottery, to printmaking, to metals, and weaving. She also studied photography at the prestigious Memphis College of Art.
After College, Miranda freelanced her talents—including photography, painting windows and signs, logo design work and printing. She opened and operates a faux finish and mural business and enjoys commission work and collaborations with other local artists.

Become an exhibiting Artist
Art•Body•Soul hosts local up-and-coming artists who are looking to show their work. Art Openings are held on First Fridays as an ongoing part of our "Friday Nights at the Center" happenings. We offer the opportunity for both solo and group shows. If you are interested, please contact Madeleine Newkirk directly.
Digital submissions of art work, including dimensions and pricing are required along with the number of pieces that you would like to display. We only have space for 2 dimensional art. Art shows will be displayed for approximately 1 month. There is no charge to exhibit in a show. A 20% commission will be collected on all sales. Deadline for submission is two weeks before each show.
artist talk
Everything we do at Art•Body•Soul is focused on building a community for holistic learning, self-discovery and enrichment. We request that the artists we exhibit be willing to share their personal stories of self-discovery and transformation through art. An interview with Madeleine Newkirk is part of the process to become an exhibiting artist. Contact Madeleine here.
