Instructor: Paige LaDue Henry – Artist & Instructor
Paige entered her first art show at age fifteen in southern California. She pursued the study of classical realism and traditional atelier methods with a focus on drawing, painting, portraiture and figure study. She went on to experience screen printing, batik, graphic, fiber arts, and art history. Over the years she has studied with many notable artists.
Having been born into a chaotic and dysfunctional family, Paige says that she retreated into art at an early age. She most definitely feels, “Art saved her!” She has never not felt like an artist. She feels that creating is absolutely necessary for her whole wellbeing.
Twenty years ago, she transitioned to her abstract style, working in acrylic mixed media. Exciting large paintings danced in her head, waiting to be released on canvas! The images would not rest until she committed to their creation. She finds layering the paint, oil pastel, charcoal, graphite, ink, paper, fabric and other materials gives her a great opportunity to create “happy accidents”, textures, history and the mystery that she is in search of.
For twenty-five years Paige has run a design/production studio, creating fashion accessories for the gift and wholesale trade, Northern Brights, Inc. in St. Cloud, Mn.
Paige is a firm believer that most people are WAY MORE creative than they think they are, all they need is a little instruction, the willingness to step outside their comfort zone, and have a sense of humor! Yup, it’s important to being some silliness to art class with you!
