Art That Explores Emotions, the Sacred and the Sensual
Gina Mielko working in her studio

I was born and raised in New York City, a self-taught artist shaped by the wisdom of local working painters. There’s a quiet magic in learning from those who create with their hands and hearts. My early mentors taught me to see beyond technique.

In the early 1990s, I moved to Atlanta and began painting custom murals in private homes. By the mid-90s, my brush found its way from walls to canvas, where my art evolved and my themes expanded.

My work has been represented in galleries in Brazil, and I’ve participated in vibrant local art events like Booze and Pancakes in Atlanta. Most of my collectors reside in Brazil, with a growing presence in the United States.

My style leans toward Contemporary Surrealism and Neo-Expressionism. A tapestry of human experience woven with longing, divinity, and desire. I explore the tension between the spiritual and the carnal, the sacred and the sensual. Each piece is a meditation, a whisper, a reckoning.
