A Full-Time Artist

LOCart-Avoyellian Artist

I am proud to officially announce that I am now a full-time fine artist- LOCart- Leslie Owen Carmouche Avoyellian Artist, dedicating my practice entirely to creating original paintings inspired by the Southern coast and culture of the United States.

My work reflects a deep connection to place—layered landscapes, coastal waters, working heritage, and the quiet strength found throughout the South. Each painting is thoughtfully developed through texture, abstraction, and realism, honoring both tradition and personal narrative.

Through my LOCart Business, I am now offering:

  • Original design fine art paintings

  • Custom commissioned works

  • Requested paint parties and instructional classes

  • LOCart curated numbered prints

This transition marks a meaningful step forward—allowing me to fully invest in my craft, collaborate with collectors and communities, and create work with purpose and intention. I look forward to building lasting connections through art and sharing Southern stories on canvas.

Let’s create something meaningful together.
