SEPTEMBER 7 Camille Barnes Backroads and Bayous of Louisiana
Portrait artist Camille Barnes is mostly self-taught; but she has also learned from some of today’s finest portrait artists. Some of which includes studying at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts under well-known artist Auseklis Ozols and attending workshops by The Portrait Society of America led by artists Daniel Greene, Michael Shane Neal, and David Kassan.
As a realist, her paintings capture the essence of the subject matter, using color, light, and attention to detail to make her subjects come alive. Much of her life has been a career of being a freelance artist, an illustrator and a graphic designer. Throughout her career she has illustrated over 15 books. The State Library of Louisiana chose her more recently illustrated book, Goodnight Acadiana, as the sole book to represent the state of Louisiana for the 2012 National Book Festival, held by the Library of Congress in Washington D.C. Her main focus in recent years has been specializing in portrait painting and decorative art. She has won state and national competitions such as the Louisiana 38th Annual River Art Exhibit in 2006 and in 2013 a winner in the still life division for the national competition for members of the Portrait Society of America.
