Justin Roxo

Hi, I’m Justin—a digital arts teacher by day, and a landscape painter by evening (or whenever I can sneak away from a screen). I work primarily in acrylic because it lets me unplug and get a little messy. My paintings are usually based on real places I’ve visited—tiny moments of escapism, frozen in color. Up close, you’ll notice some unexpected color combinations. I like it that way. Painting, for me, is about translating a feeling more than capturing a photo.

When I’m not painting or teaching, I’m building opportunities for young creatives to connect through art fairs, clubs, and community events. I believe in making art feel possible—for everyone.
