Lamar Briggs Paintings

American, 1935-2015

Lamar Briggs was born in Lafayette, Louisiana. He attended University of Southern Louisiana, University of Houston and graduated from Colorado Institute of Art. Lamar’s work is internationally acclaimed, and he is known worldwide as a colorist inspired by music and nature. By 1972, Briggs started coming into his own as a proficient colorist and was invited to exhibit both solo and in group shows nationally and internationally; he has participated in more than 140 group and solo exhibitions. Briggs’s talents as an abstract artist have been applied to paintings, monotypes, watercolors, bronze sculpture, woodcuts and tapestry.
