Roz LeCompte
Visual Artist
LeCompte is self-taught,
tapping her intuition and fostering
a natural sense of play felt throughout her work.
It’s easy to imagine the artist as a young girl
painting teacups and flowers and snakes on her studio floor.
But the femininity and fragility in her art
impart serious whimsy,
the kind of play that
breaks you open and makes you free again.
LeCompte’s lack of formal training
makes room for bona fide naïveté;
she is simply (and stunningly)
seeing the world and eating it alive
and synthesizing the experience into every medium
she can get her hands on.
Roz is also the founder of local Acadian art collective, FrancoFae.
