Enchanting,
seductive, exuberant, bewitching; a swell of adjectives come to mind when I
consider New Orleans. Unlike the chain dominated façades of most American towns, the charming reality
we live in here is rich with personal touches and family owned gems. We are bound by shared festivals and
hardships, which have forged a whimsical fusion of contemporary and historical
aesthetics.
Nola House
Portraits is dedicated to the creation of original artworks that commemorate
the homes where our narratives unfold. I
photograph and then draw each image by hand with ink on heavy weight
paper. All of the materials used are
artist quality to stand the test of time and enclosed with a mat in a Mylar
envelope. I look forward to working with
you to create a portrait of your home that will become part of your story.
Sincerely,
Morgan Muhs
Bio: I am calling New Orleans home again after living in North Carolina for a few years, and aside from the occasional power outage, tire exploding pothole and oppressive humidity, I am re-assimilating well. I have a BFA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where I studied printmaking. Right now I am leading an art class for seniors and teaching in an after school program at an elementary school. Can't decide which one I like more, as both leave me in stitches.
