Delphine Mouton

Delphine Mouton paints the light that falls on things just before dark — the hour when the Mississippi goes copper and every porch in Natchez holds a story. Raised in a shotgun house two blocks from the bluff, she learned color from her grandmother's quilt patterns and composition from Sunday drives down the Trace. Her oils range from intimate interiors to sweeping river vistas, always anchored in the specific weight of Southern air.
