Fiber
Diane Durand's grandmother, Marquita
Drolet, put a needle and thread in her hand at age eight.
It wasn't until 1998, however, that Nellie Bass Durand of
Knoxville, Tennesee became her mentor. Since discovering this
traditional art, Alicia Diane Durand has begun to explore
color and cloth in a whole new way!

Painting
Taking inspiration from folk art, early
20th century masters--Klee, Picasso, Beckman and the German
Expressionists--Peter Durand's images are narrative, bright
and populated by characters with a story.

Printmaking
While studying Illustration at Washington University in St.
Louis School of Art, Peter Durand fell in love with the traditional
methods of reproduction: woodcut, lithography, letterpress,
etc. Later, on a grant from Rotary International, he had the
priviledge of working in the print studios of the Polish Academy
of Fine Art, Cracow.
