So many wonderful artists are inspired by the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Original art can be found along the coast from Bay St. Louis to Ocean Springs, MS. One folk artist is creating delightful and inspiring paintings, meet Church Going Mule, Marshall Blevins.
Paintings created by Marshall Blevins, Church Going Mule, 2020.
Each year Twelve Oaks in Ocean Springs houses a regional artist, and Artist in Residence for 2020 was MARSHALL BLEVINS. A folk artist from our neighboring state of Louisiana, she has brought her special creative folk art talents to our coast.
Folk art that offers inspiration, she brings history and reflection to many of her paintings. As you look though her work you notice a mule is often at the center. There is a playfulness and energy to the images. Each painting offers a message, mostly positive and always of a simpler life. Marshall Blevin and her art can be found on Instagram @churchgoinmule.
