A high school art teacher for 35 years, and the owner of the Frame Game for 26 years, Zack Baisden is a well known figure in the Pensacola art community. Following his recent retirement, Zack's newest paintings reveal an explosion of creativity as he explores the realm of abstraction, in an "attempt to pull logic from the illogical impulses of the subconscious." He describes his style of painting as ranging from traditional reality to contemporary abstraction.

Zack, a resident of Pensacola since 1968, has a Masters degree in art education from the University of South Alabama. In addition to devoting time to his creative pursuits, Zack sells art, commercially, and is a dealer in picture frame moulding.
