About the Gallery...
I read once that the definition of 'great art' was art that you didn't forget. When I opened The William & Joseph Gallery (named after my brothers and grandfather) in June 2001 in New Orleans my goal was to create a gallery of living artists that did just that - showcased art work that people would love and remember. One artist I know made a simple, yet profound statement recently, when, as we looked at work from potential artists asked "Why would you paint that?" and I thought to myself "What a great question." And it made me believe, more than ever, that I want to show more than just pretty pictures. On my walls you will find beautifully constructed encaustic works, layer upon layer of bees wax in glorious colors, and vibrant paintings of color theory, sweeping abstracts and surrealist trees.  Another artist creates poetic vessels, incorporating india ink onto the surface with paintings of flowers and men in suits - a quirky homage to the working man.  A new gallery feature is our dedicated sculpture garden, featuring DeBusk and his family of "Fat Happies", totems by Brian Keith Scott and large 'nests' by Lichtenhan. It's an eclectic collection - all original work, all inspired, provoking and precious.  I am proud to show every one of these artists, whose lives are defined by what they create and mine enriched by what I see.

So enjoy your visit to my website, or to my gallery space on Canyon Road, and know that you will see something special here.
