A Unique Slant of Light: The Bicentennial History of Art in Louisiana - (Page 213)

WALTER INGLIS ANDERSON b. 1903, New Orleans, Louisiana d. 1965, New Orleans, Louisiana Frogs Bugs and Flowers, ca. 1945 Watercolor on paper; 25 x 19 in. Ogden Museum of Southern Art Gift of the Roger H. Ogden Collection Walter Inglis Anderson expressed his unique artistic vision in murals, watercolors, oils, sketches, sculpture, rugs, wallpaper, ceramics, and furniture, among other art forms. Anderson sought to unite art and nature, and his work bears witness to a lifelong meditation on the relationship between human experience and the natural world. His use of line, explosive color, recurring motifs, and his exploration of significant form were the technical means to an artistically distinctive body of art. Though his work is increasingly well known today, Anderson’s secluded life on the Mississippi Gulf Coast delayed full recognition of his achievement until after his death in 1965.
