The Southern Colours Art Association is an active group of professional Georgia artists who share a mutual interest in art. From just two artists painting together in 1995, they have evolved to a larger group that now meets weekly in Gwinnett County to paint. They are an informal organization that is held together only by their commitment to painting with each other regularly. Members come from Snellville, Lawrenceville, Lilburn, Loganville, Marietta, Roswell and Suwanee.

Southern Colours artists utilize various mediums and their work encompasses many styles. The current exhibit includes paintings in acrylic, encaustic, oil, pastel and watercolor.
