From New Orleans, Clarence Millet was a prolific painter in a
simplistic realist style whose work, some of it nostalgic, in the early
20th-century documents much of the lifestyle of Louisiana people in his
area. Of his painting, he said: "I paint the things I know,
see, and feel - I try to impart to the beholder an experience I have
seen and felt."
As a young man, he worked in a store in New Orleans, where his art
talent became apparent to persons who encouraged him (showing 500 of 1443 characters). |
