AnnElla Joubert

AnnElla Joubert's love for color has led her down many creative path's; and her experimentation with many different media has taught her the benefits and limitations of each. using oil, water color ,acrylic, and pastel she often mixes media to achieve her goal. Primarily an impressionist, Joubert also paints abstractly. I love to watch the color transform the paper or canvas into images and illusions. A diverse artist she also writes poem and songs about her paintings. Ann Ella illustrated a book ( The Mermaid of Bayou Caillou ) written by Christy Viviano. She has been painting seriously for many years, she is mostly self-taught learning from books , videos , workshops and life itself .She has studied with notable artist as Albert Handel, Maxine Masterfield, Miles Bates, Judi Betts, and Douglas Walton, while the works of Monet, Renoir ,John Singer Sargent and Berta Morrisot continue to challenge her. Her greatest inspiration comes from God "Without him I would be nothing. With him I can be everything I want to be"
   AnnElla's work has been part of exhibits and juried shows throughout the southeast, and she has received numerous awards.

Margaret Melancon

I received my first camera (a Polaroid) thirty-three years ago.  I graduated from the Polaroid to a 110, and then a 35mm.  For me "life began at 42" when I entered my first competition.  I received 7 ribbons including 2 firsts and a Sweepstakes.  I have been entering competitions and placing for the last 15 years.  As a photographer I was self taught mainly by reading photo articles, observation, and trial and error.  After 27 years of taking pictures I took my first classes with Richard Wallis and Danny Izzo. I always critique my pictures as to whether it would be a prize winner.  In the last year, I have discovered digital, and think this is the only way to go.  I enjoy taking pictures of Louisiana life whether it is flowers, people or scenic.  I also had begun painting at 42 and have studied charcoal, pen and ink, oil, pastel, watercolor, and Chinese brush painting with Yvette Boutte, Mart Fielding, Margo Delahoussaye, Cathy Kieffe, Ann Junka and John Bienvenu.
