Louise DeMore

A magazine article in Reader’s Digest about a man suddenly going blind opened Louise DeMore’s eyes.

Drawn to art since her childhood days in Colorado, DeMore (b 1939) brought the artistic instinct with her when her parents moved to Los Angeles in 1949. Rather that an art degree, however, she graduated from California State University, Los Angeles, with a degree in math. It wasn’t until 1973 when the magazine article made her think about blindness, that she concluded that “seeing” and sharing her visions was what she really wanted to do.

When DeMore first started painting she often used her children as models. That led to more art classes and intensive workshops in Idaho with Sergei Bongart. Local exhibits and various regional and national competitions followed.

Among her memberships she prizes the Knickerbocker Artists, New York, NY, and the Western Academy of Western Artists. Other exhibition opportunities have included the Catherine Lorrillard Wolfe Art Club, New York, the California Art Club, the Oil Painters of America and the Plein Air Painters of America.

Along the way, DeMore relocated in Los Osos, a small speck of a California costal town midway between Los Angles and San Francisco. Her studio is ideally located in the shadow of the vast Montana de Oro State Park, a blend of rugged coastline and spectacular golden hills that have inspired many of her paintings.

Only one thing seems to lure DeMore away from painting: a PiperArcher singleengine airplane. She took up flying more than a decade ago, in search of a new challenge. Reluctant at first, DeMore is now and avid pilot that flies herself to various shows and conferences throughout the West.
