James H. Hussey (Louisiana, born 1931) Jim Hussey is a native of New Orleans who has become one of the country's artists of note. Born in 1936 Jim was educated in New Orleans, and upon completion of his academic training he began a career in the world of business. Later in the summer of 1970 he decided to leave this career. Equipped only with the paints and brushes his mother had left him, an interest in art from early childhood, and inspired by his surroundings, his family, his friends, and prominent artists, he decided to leave his successful career as a salesman and merchant to pursue his love for art on a full-time basis. In order to refine his ideas, skills and techniques, in 1972 he attended the John McCrady School of Fine Arts. The decision to pursue art proved to be a wise one for his renditions of the Old South, its many lazy bayous, and life along the Mississippi shortly became wanted by many art collectors, galleries, and museums throughout the world. His paintings reflect personal feelings in the nostalgic and romantic moods, settings, and history of the South as seen through the eyes of numerous novelists and historians. Like most true artists, Jim is constantly driven toward self-improvement and growth through better interpretation, increased skill and authenticity in subject matter and composition.
