In the vibrant world of creativity and color, few artists manage to leave a mark as significant as Justin Salley has within the acrylic pour community. This March, Eye Candy Pigments is thrilled to honor an exceptional talent, a devoted creator, and a beloved member of our community, Justin Salley, as our Maker of the Month.

A Shared Journey of Creativity

Following the recognition of Jessica Salley, his equally talented partner, as our September 2023 Maker of the Month, we find ourselves in a unique position to celebrate not just an individual artist, but a dynamic duo that has significantly enriched our vibrant community.

The Salley Legacy

Justin's journey with Eye Candy Pigments began with a splash of color and a vision to integrate our diverse palette into the world of acrylic pours. His innovative spirit and dedication have played a pivotal role in not just popularizing our colors but also in fostering a culture of exploration and creativity. His contributions go beyond art; Justin has been instrumental in providing superior guidance and invaluable information to our users and followers, helping them unlock their creative potential.

Oregon Grown, Nature Inspired

Born and raised in Oregon, Justin's artistry is deeply rooted in the breathtaking landscapes of the Pacific Northwest. From the lush green forests to the majestic blue waters of the Pacific Ocean, his work is a testament to the beauty that surrounds us. Justin's connection to nature doesn't stop with his art. When he's not in his studio, you can find him embracing the serenity of the great outdoors, with a particular passion for fishing, especially Smallmouth Bass.

A Diverse Palette of Mediums

Since embarking on his fluid art journey on July 27th, 2021, Justin has expanded his creative repertoire to include resin and alcohol ink, alongside his initial love for acrylic pour art. Despite the limitations of a small workspace, his passion for woodworking showcases his versatility and commitment to exploring various forms of expression.

Creating: A Need, Not a Want

For Justin, creating is as essential as breathing. It's his pathway to peace, a means to connect with his inner self, and a way to share his love for the Pacific Wonderland with the world. His art is not just seen; it's felt, embodying the spirit of creation that drives him every day.
