Sedrick Ervin Huckaby (1975) is an American artist known for his use of thick, impasto paint to create murals that evoke traditional quilts and his production of large portraits that represent his personal history through images of family members and neighbors.

He has lectured on the Grant Hill Collection of African American Art at the Dallas Museum of Art, and through The Artist's Eye series at the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth.

His work "A Love Supreme (Spring)" is based on the jazz song of the same name by John Coltrane, and depicts a series of quilts draped across the canvas emphasizing weight and texture.
