Arlette Fougeras Lavergnolle was born in Morristown, New Jersey. Her father, director of the Red Cross during the Second World War, met her mother in Lyons where they married in 1946.
Arlette had artistic inspiration thanks to a Belgian artist Madame de Bliqui, who taught her drawing and painting from the age of 8. She continued thereafter to take drawing and painting lessons in addition to her studies. She completed a bachelor's degree in sociology and also obtained a nursing diploma. Her first nursing job was in the Virgin Islands in St. Cross . The brilliance of the colors and the beauty of the island will be a strong influence on her, which will push her to devote more and more time to painting.
In order to have contacts with other artists, she will return regularly to the United States. It was there that she would meet Edgar Whitney, a watercolor teacher with whom she would study until
his death at the age of 96.
Thanks to this association, she knew a group of about thirty professional watercolourists
from Long Island with whom she continues to work. She also took other courses with renowned watercolorists such as Frank Webb, Betty Lou Schlemm and Don Andrews.
Throughout this period, she made several exhibitions of her works, while continuing her nursing profession. His taste for adventure and travel took him to Ireland, Africa,
in France and in various islands of the West Indies, where she found other subjects of inspiration. In Paris she took courses at the Grande Chaumière; she was accepted at the Salon d'Automne in 1986. In 1989 she became a member of the European Watercolor Institute and exhibited on behalf of the Institute in Brussels and The Hague. She met her future husband in a Café - Galerie on rue Mouffetard and became, unlike her parents, an American married to a Frenchman.
Now based in Toulouse, her subjects have diversified. We can include landscapes of the region, without forgetting of course the West Indies, Brittany, the east coast of the United States as well as portraits, including those of her daughter Guillemette.< /p>
