J. LACY COUGHLAN

SOLD

"I credit my Mother with fostering my painting.  An artist herself, she encouraged my early interest in drawing; providing me with crayons and watercolors, colored pencils and oils, as well as appropriate paper and canvas so I would keep my creations off her walls. My deep love of animals led to sketching them, and my enjoyment of the out-of-doors prompted me to try to recreate nature's beauty through my art."

"I work in traditional oils, but occasionally delve into pastels, watercolors or mixed media to paint a variety of subjects, but nature and wildlife, often influenced by Native American lore, continue to inspire the majority of my work. My Horses of the Sun, for example, are based on a Navajo legend.  I am currently working on a series of wildlife paintings for exhibition."

     The story behind

Guardian of Aqua Canyon.

​​"For nearly 10 years, my husband and I photographed a mated pair of ravens that frequented Aqua Point in Bryce Canyon NP. They were quite the photo hams and we looked forward to seeing them on each visit.  Sadly, on our last trip, there was only the male. I took a photo of him wistfully looking out over the canyon to the Vermillion Cliffs in the distance. That photo, shown below,  inspired the painting."

Artist Note:  I have always believed in giving back. Both Mulligan I and II  were expressly created for donation to an annual benefit golf tournament. They were offered at auction, and the proceeds went to support the Wolfson Children's Hospital in Jacksonville, Florida. 

​                           Matted prints are available.


A "mulligan" by the way, is a golfing term for an unplayable shot. Have you found the golf ball in the paintings yet?

The artist's photo of Whistling Ducks in flight over Lake Apopka served as the inspiration for the painting shown below. 

Blue Bear was featured on the

​ poster for Mt. Dora's Studio ArtFarmGoing Wild Exhibition.
