Area artist to showcase work at Great Southern National Bank

Meridian native Memory Webb began painting for the first time in late August, 2005. And began professionally in 2007. Her love for drawing and art began at an early age, but she has just recently decided to share that love with the public.
Between finding the time to paint and preparing displays, Webb hardly has anytime left to travel to many shows but Webb recently traveled and participated in “Come Home to Stonewall”. Webb says, “now that she has participated in a festival she knows what to expect; therefore, this experience will lead her to a better display for future festivals; to which, she hopes to participate throughout the south.”
As a native Mississippian, Webb’s paintings reflect that of how she was raised. The scenic paintings of the south and its culture has inspired her the most. Included in her subject matter are old houses and barns, churches, lighthouses, cottonfields, antiques shops, local buildings, dogwoods and magnolias, swamps, animals and folk art of Mississippi. Recently, Webb has added portrait sketching and sketching of celebrities to her portfolio.
Webb has her paintings displayed in the Lauderdale County Public Library, Lauderdale County Welcome Center in Toomsuba ,Ms, and a very prominent businessmans Office, just to name a few locations you can find her artwork. She will continue to showcase her talent to the area with a show at Great Southern National Bank this Friday November 9th, 2007 from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., Webb will be available to meet the public and interested art seekers and her paintings will be available to view and purchase.
Webb’s philosophy is simple. The self-taught artist believes that life is to short and time is to precious and lives each day to the fullest. “Live every day to its fullest and don’t take everything so seriously,” Webb said, “Nobody is getting out of this world alive so stop and smell the roses because the roses may not be there tomorrow. You only go through life once so make the best of the time you have here on earth.
Webb’s technique can be described as being a little different and unique when she attempts to capture the south in her paintings. Ideas for her paintings have stemmed from family photos, talks with elders, travel and her imagination.
A mixed-media painter, Webb uses acrylic and watercolors. Many of her paintings are landscapes and reveal bright colors with a touch of character. While the artist claims to be developing her own personal style, Webb proclaimed that her work would most likely be described as Southern folk Art.
Interested patrons can view Webb’s work at Great Southern National Bank on Friday or visit her virtual art gallery online at .

Webb also states, she is looking for a building in Clarke County for an art gallery to display her work among many more artists . If you have a building or know of a building, contact her through her website.
