Audubon Swamp Festival commissionI was thrilled to be chosen for Audubon Zoo's first Swamp Festival poster. Though my Jazz and City life paintings were better known, the love of sketching and painting animals made this a natural for me. Preperation began with forays to the zoo to sketch and photograph followed with several treks into the deep swamps sorrounding New Orleans. It was a ball working into the painting so many local wild animals and plants. Later I attended the colorful festival, signed many posters and sold some of my other prints.
Recently I found a small collection of these great posters while reorganizing my studio! So I am offering them in the "New Orleans" Category under the title "Audubon Zoo Swamp Festival". I hope you enjoy a glimpse of the critters and tje Louisiana swamp enviroment. |
