Attention Friends and Art Collectors!

Greetings,

In honor of this festive Mardi Gras season, we would like to host our own celebration....a celebration of New Orleans' artists! Living in New Orleans means many things. For some it means a continued struggle to rebuild the homes and communities that have been destroyed in the past years; for others it means a long line of tradition and family; while for our city's many visitors it means Bourbon Street, parades, beads and great music!

Regardless of what The Crescent City means to you, the artists that strive to capture the vibrant sounds, colors and emotions of New Orleans should be applauded their efforts. Teri Galleries is pleased to offer some of the finest artists in New Orleans. We encourage you to support the rebirth of New Orleans by investing in local New Orleans' artists and the beauty that they capture through their paint.

For inquiries on New Orleans' artists and the many other international artists that we carry, please contact Teri Galleries at 504-887-8588 or email us at info@terigalleries.com. Happy Mardi Gras!

R.C. Davis

R.C. Davis
Richard Christopher (R. C.) Davis is one of the best-known artists in the Gulf Coast area. Born October 19, 1950 in a rural area outside Amite, Louisiana, he lived the stereotypical life of a farm boy. His love of the natural and farm landscape are outgrowths of his childhood that continue to influence his art today.

Bill Hemmerling

Bill Hemmerling
The Influence of southern folk culture and many diverse life experiences are incorporated into the eclectic painting of William Hemmerling. Bill was born in Chicago and moved to Ponchatoula, Louisiana in 1977. He is an untrained artist, yet his work reflects sophistication and creativity in both subject matter and the use of unusual materials. Bill is constantly searching for and using found or recycled materials for his one-of-a-kind creations.

Alan Flattmann

Alan Flattmann
Spanning a career of over 4 decades, Alan Flattmann is recognized as one of America's most outstanding and gifted artists. Alan Flattmann was born in the city of New Orleans in 1946. At the age of seventeen, he received a New Orleans Art Association Scholarship to study with the renown regionalist painter John McCrady at the John McCrady Art School in the French Quarter. It was there that his lifetime interest in painting the French Quarter began.

Michey Asche

Mickey Asche
Mickey’s story begins with great loss in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. Touching brush to canvas for the first time, Mickey discovered an amazing talent hidden inside. Using this newfound talent, Mickey was fueled by a creative fire that he never knew he had. Within months Mickey was selling his originals to various frame shops and individual collectors. In 2008 he was commissioned to product the official Madisonville Wooden Boat Festival poster. Mickey’s talents quickly led him to a new full-time career as artist.

Goble

Goble
Michael Guillory, "Goble'", a name given in childhood, grew up in South Louisiana amid towering oak trees, cypress swamps, and rustic dwellings. As a youth he sketched and participated in school art projects but did not seriously begin his painting career until after he completed his education at the University of Southwestern Louisiana in Lafayette. He says of his work, "I always feel great satisfaction when people say that my paintings remind them of a time or of places they knew in their childhood."
