A New Orleans resident, Becky Fos is a bit of a Renaissance Woman. Fos’ popularity has been growing yearly, not only in the Big Easy, but worldwide. Her streak of burning creative energy is rivaled only by her daily goal of living an active lifestyle of workouts, jogging and CrossFit.

Becky Fos’ works are simply signed B. Fos. Her impasto technique, applying wet, undiluted oil paint with her palette knife, is unapologetically bold and energetic. She uses color as a forefront in her pieces that allow them to come to life, evoking an instant sense of happiness. Over the years, her layering of oil paint and colors have become heavier and thicker, with some of the oil paint being raised half an inch off of the canvas. Her art can be found at her gallery space at Gallery B. Fos on famous Magazine Street at Jackson Ave.

Becky’s festival poster, for Crescent City Classic in 2016, was the first ever to sell out of it’s prints. The NOLA Mac N Cheese FEST poster is much more limited, with only 1,000 total prints available. Look for her upcoming gallery events and her first coffee- table book on-line and in stores in early 2018.

Becky Fos is the most important female painter working in Louisiana today, and her artwork has taken the Gulf South by storm, with collectors across the Country and from all walks of life.

Artist Statement

“For me, painting is the most authentic way to express myself. I am not good with words, so I just want to keep this short. I feel enormously blessed to live in New Orleans. And I’m inspired by everything . I gather boundless inspiration from all corners of this wild, beautiful, and colorful city. New Orleans is my muse. I try to transform the spirit of my inspirations into oil paintings with my trusty palette knife. I choose the colors on my palette, but in the end the colors really choose me.”
