About the Artist
Jean Lajaunie is a native of New Orleans and moved to Slidell
approximately three years ago. She has been involved in
painting and the study of art for the last 35 years. Having a
natural talent and wanting to refine that talent, she began
studying under the direction of a well-known New Orleans
artist Lorraine Sherman. She also studied at the New Orleans
Art Academy and Newcomb College. Jean began teaching art
by working with children and then adults.
Jean has worked in oils, pen and ink, acrylics , and watercolor
but her love for detail and softness brought her to work in
pastels refining her technique to display fine details
throughout her paintings. Though she enjoys painting many
subjects, landscapes, portraits, still life, her love for the beauty
found in nature and wildlife has led her to concentrate on
nature and wildlife painting.
She has received many awards over the years including “Best
of Show” in a regional juried show and has had a one- person
show in New Orleans. Her paintings can be found in private
collections in many cities throughout the United States and
elsewhere.
She now resides in Slidell and can be contacted by mail at
P.O. Box 3220, Slidell, Louisiana 70459
