Henri Gadbois
Henri Gadbois was a second-generation Houston artist. A native Houstonian, Gadbois graduated from Lamar High School and the University of Houston, receiving bachelor of fine arts and master of letters degrees. Although his main interest had been in painting the Texas landscape, he was also interested in primitive rug hooking, quilting and ceramics. He spent as much time as possible with his artist wife, Leila McConnell, at their home in the Texas hill country in Ingram, Texas.

Biography

She was a 20th century woman with a Renaissance soul who lavished her work with brilliant color, always breaking and making the rules to achieve the desired effect. An explorer, Putnam was basically self-taught; it could not be otherwise because no one had the vision that she had. She worked in oil, watercolor, wax resist, casein, and pastel, exploring new avenues, developing new techniques, combining mediums, and creating a unique style, instantly recognizable, unlike any other. A background in fashion illustration was evident in the color, texture, and design that adorned both male and female figures. In abstract work, there was always a keen but unique sense of design.
