DENISE GALLAGHER + 64 PARISHES

July 19, 2023

It’s always a pleasure when a client is so happy with your work that they return again and again.


Denise has several clients in that category, as she shared "I was thrilled when the art director of “64 Parishes Magazine,” a publication by Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities, reached out to me to create an illustration for the cover of their Winter 2022 edition. I created an illustrated cover for their 2019 Winter edition that they loved and that I was extremely proud of."

"This 2022 edition of the magazine focused on winter traditions throughout the entire state of Louisiana. This was a bit of a challenge as Louisiana has many different regions, each with unique customs. I went to work researching the traditions and sketching out ideas which I shared with the art director. They loved the idea of a “winter carnival” of whimsical Louisiana wildlife dressed in their winter finery, marching along, playing music and celebrating winter in Louisiana."


The resulting cover was beautiful and appeared in museums, galleries and art spaces through out Louisiana.

Photographer Amy Mikler was kayaking in the bay near her clan’s vacation spot, when she met some local oyster farmers. Their hard work and connection to the water sparked something deeper in Amy's creative mind. That chance encounter brought to life an idea Amy had been nurturing for some time: a project that celebrates The Farm Behind The Food.
