Lavett Ballard's Page
Profile
- About Me:
- Lavett ‘Preachers Wife’ Ballard showed her artistic talents from an early age. Through elementary and high school, she explored this gift with a passion. Winning many state and local art shows by the age of ten embolden Lavett even more. This passion was further sparked by her early exposure to art teachers who encouraged and praised her artistic talent.
Lavett received formal training at the esteemed Newark, New Jersey High school for the Arts and the Parsons School of Design. Her Artwork has been exhibited in Museums, galleries, and shows from New York to California. Collectors of her work have included prominent Politicians, Entertainers, Artists, Professionals, and those in various Ministries. On the local scene, her works were exhibited at public libraries, Art Centers, Private offices, and the African American Heritage Museum of South Jersey. Lavett's calling card of colorful images and diverse spectrum of illustrations of her people is a gift from God. She truly believes God directs her artistic vision. Her work is ever evolving from deep and thought provoking to spiritual and sensual. Peers describe her work as "colorful pictures of life."
Lavett resides in Willingboro, New Jersey with her husband Reverend Anthony L Ballard Sr.; she is the mother of three of her greatest creations and inspirations, Keenan Ore and Anthony L. II and Jeremiah James Ballard.
Lavett's work may be viewed at www.PreachersWifeArts.com, and at Astah's Art
Gallery in Maplewood, NJ, and Taina’s Art Gallery in Montgomery AL.
