Cathey December
Growing up in an artistic family, December always viewed art as a way of communication. In 1973 she learned the technique of printmaking and began creating limited edition, original, hand-colored etchings. By the time she was 14 years old, she was selling her art to wholesalers, retailers, and galleries.
After high school she continued to study fine art at the University of New Orleans where she shared unique etching techniques with her professors. December was one of the featured artists at the 1984 Louisiana World’s Fair, where her work was featured in the U.S. Pavilion. Her work has also been seen in numerous movies, public and private collections, both in the United States and abroad.
