DENISE GALLAGHER + 64 PARISHES

July 19, 2023

It’s always a pleasure when a client is so happy with your work that they return again and again.


Denise has several clients in that category, as she shared "I was thrilled when the art director of “64 Parishes Magazine,” a publication by Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities, reached out to me to create an illustration for the cover of their Winter 2022 edition. I created an illustrated cover for their 2019 Winter edition that they loved and that I was extremely proud of."

"This 2022 edition of the magazine focused on winter traditions throughout the entire state of Louisiana. This was a bit of a challenge as Louisiana has many different regions, each with unique customs. I went to work researching the traditions and sketching out ideas which I shared with the art director. They loved the idea of a “winter carnival” of whimsical Louisiana wildlife dressed in their winter finery, marching along, playing music and celebrating winter in Louisiana."


The resulting cover was beautiful and appeared in museums, galleries and art spaces through out Louisiana.

Photographer Amy Mikler wanted to know what happens five seconds later, when a kid jumps in, water flies everywhere, and the float is over before anyone can call it a wrap.

Two years ago Denise said yes to the biggest project of her career. A London publisher wanted her to research and retell folktales from around the world, one for every turn of the season, write the retellings herself, and illustrate all of it.
