About Us
Our Story.
Tennessee Fine Art was founded in early 2026 by long-time photographer Aaron Jarnigan. After more than a decade with a camera in hand, Aaron realized most of his images were living only on screens. He believed art wasn't meant to stay trapped in pixels, so he began curating his best work into a gallery where the beauty of Tennessee could actually be shared.
Our mission is to provide a marketplace for images taken in and around Tennessee, by the photographers who call it home. We want to empower local artists to let their work be more than files on a hard drive, while curating a collection for the folks who love this state as much as we do.
In case we forgot to mention, our business is based in and operated right here out of Knoxville or more specifically, Powell Tennessee.
AI artwork and big-box store prints may be convenient, but they lack a soul. They weren't produced by a human being standing out in the pouring rain, summer humidity or the biting winter cold to get 'the shot.'
Supporting local artists will always take precedence here over mass-produced decor. We hope you'll join us in supporting independent creators while investing in premium artwork that will stand the test of time.
