The Bossier Arts Council is proud to present:
"She's Teaching Me"
Deanna Glaze

Artist Statement

In an effort to broaden her own horizons she decided to create a body of work with someone who had unbridled creativity. Her daughter and she began this journey before her daughter was even able to spell the word "paint". Especially in times like this, human creativity is vital to the growth of our future generations as well as our current ones. Coming at this from an academic and scholastic standpoint may seem asinine in a sense, but as a school teacher and a mother this project allowed her to have pure expression free from predetermined artistic standards.

Artist Biography

Deanna Glaze grew up in Shreveport, LA where she was a student in the first Talented Arts Program in Caddo Parish. She was also in an after-school program called Project Talent. In 2008 Deanna received her BFA in graphic design and painting at The Memphis College of Art. She worked as a graphic designer from 2008-2014. She also taught pottery and ran the art department at Target House in Memphis, TN. Painting was more of a personal escape in her spare time at her home studio. In October 2014 she began teaching in the Talented Arts Program in Bossier Parish. Deanna currently lives in Doyline, LA where she is married to her husband Toby. They have one daughter, Shelby,
and a miniature schnauzer, Elfie Mae.
