About Dina Deason

Ever since I can remember, I’ve been a creator at heart - drawing, painting, refinishing furniture, and transforming spaces into something truly special. A self-taught artist with formal lessons from esteemed mentors like Loraine Alexander, Elizabeth Ellison, and Marden Hadley, my journey began with a deep passion for interior design and decorating, which naturally led me to put brush to canvas. Now residing on the picturesque St. Simons Island, Georgia, I’m inspired by the serene beauty of the South Georgia Coast. 

​

I create a wide range of art from abstract, impressionistic florals and landscapes to fun mixed media pieces that incorporate beautiful papers and fabrics, old photos, and sometimes found objects. Each piece is thoughtfully layered to capture the light, energy, and tranquility of our coastal surroundings. My art brings a sense of warmth, sophistication, and coastal serenity to homes across Georgia and beyond, with collectors nationwide appreciating the vivid emotion and luminosity in every piece of art. 

​

As the artist behind Deason Art, I’m dedicated to more than just creating beautiful paintings - I’m here to help you elevate your living spaces through the transformative power of art. Original artwork can completely change the feel of a room, spark meaningful conversations, and turn a house into a true home. That’s why I’m thrilled to be creating a new series of short, practical videos where I’ll share simple tips and tricks for decorating: from placing artwork for maximum impact and choosing pieces that complement your style, to  styling bookshelves with artistic touches, or hanging a gallery wall with collected original art.  

​

I continue to show my work in select galleries throughout the region and am especially excited to be working on more abstract pieces that push my creative boundaries, experimenting with bolder textures, metallic accents, and emotional depth.
