He is a graduate of Southern University at New Orleans where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art Education. He also attended New Orleans Center for Creative Arts (NOCCA) for one year studying in the visual arts program. However, it was at Southern University at New Orleans under the tutelage of instructors in the Art Department that his expression of art was fully realized. Prince, as he is more widely known, shocked the art world by hosting his first solo exhibition in 1991 called "KNOWLEDGE IS POWER." Since then he has done numerous exhibitions, private and public works in New Orleans. He has done art shows throughout the state and country, Jazz Fest, Essence, Denver Black Arts Festival and presently "REBIRTH" at Isaac Delgado Fine Art Gallery. When Katrina hit New Orleans, he and his family relocated to Atlanta. Now, after a ten year hiatus, he has returned with new eyes and zeal to put his vision on canvas. Prince is currently teaching in the Talented Visual Art Program and coaching at John Ehret High School in Marrero, LA. #artisttalk #Rivertownartscouncil #Kenner #art #NOLA #painting #RAC Sponsored by: Rivertown Arts Council - Rivertown Mainstreet - New Orleans Chapter National Conference of Artists - Fleur De Lily Cafe & Bakery
