Artist
A native of Prairieville, Louisiana; I’ve always had an appreciation of our culture and wildlife in our swamps. Finding inspiration to draw and paint is not hard living here, just stop and look around you. The desire to paint was always in the back of my mind. In 1992, I signed up with local artists Peggy Miller and Teddy Ruiz. By attending these classes, I learned about other workshops given by other artists. In 200l, I took my first workshop with Ann Warner. This was three days of mind boggling elation. You come out with your mind swimming with the information you have just learned and not enough hours in the day to paint. I realized the depth of what there was to learn about color and value. This led me to purchase books to read and study about value and color mixing. With the desire to continue to learn new techniques and refine my skills I have taken workshops and studied under numerous well known artist Morgan Samuel Price, Libby Johnson, Pat Weaver, Judi Betts, Billy Solitario, Krista Roch, Norma Roy, Mary Jane Cox, John O’Neal, Elaine Kiehler, Billie Bougeous, Della Storm, Beverly Dudley, Renee Fletcher, Kathy Daigle, Mrs. Clark, Kathy Stone. Art is so broad and versatile that there is always something to learn. You are exposed to new techniques and come up with new ideas to express on canvas. Show that I have entered: Artists Guild Unlimited Art Show, Morgan City Art Guild of Gonzales Art Show, Gonzales River Region Awesome Art Show, Gonzales (Houmas House) Awards I won: 2005--HM Gonzales Art Show 2006--5th place Gonzales Art Show 2007--HM Ascension Parish Bicentennial 2007--Best of Show RRAA Art Show
