We turn our Local Spotlight to acclaimed freelance artist, Justin Ransburg. A Jackson native, Justin has a passion for art that can be seen in his work and heard in his words. We sat down with him at the Fondren Cups (hence the s*** sound quality) to talk about life as a struggling artist, the benefits of being in Jackson, and how he turned his passion into a career.

Justin’s work can be seen on his Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook…check out a few right here!

My first mural and painting commission of #2017 was completed last night at @luckytownbrew just in time for the kickoff of Jackson Indie Music Week! The show starts at 6 tomorrow night. A list of the events is on the @jxnindiemusic page and website. See you there! #RansburgArt #LuckyTownBrewery #makeyourownluck #montanagold #mural #jimw #beer #hops #ballasticblonde #graffiti #legalgraffiti
