Note: Born in Mobile, Alabama, Raine Bedsole graduated from Auburn University and the San Francisco Art Institute. She has been active in the New Orleans art community since the early 1990s and works from a French Quarter studio. Bedsole is a prizewinner in the Florence Biennale and the recipient of a Joan Mitchell Foundation public sculpture grant. She spent much of her childhood on a farm, and her early experiences inspired a lifelong interest in nature. Natural forms and surfaces inform much of her work, which often includes nautical imagery. Her art is often described as haunting and serene, with “patinas and textures embodied with meaning.”Ref.: "Biography." Raine Bedsole. www.rainebedsole.com. Accessed Mar. 3, 2023. "Raine Bedsole."
