Ann Ella Soileau Joubert's love for color has led her down many creative paths. Her experimentation with many different media has taught her the benefits and limitations of each. Using oil, watercolor,
acrylic, and pastel, she often uses mixed media to achieve her goal. Primarily an impressionist, Ann Ella also paints abstractly. She loves to watch color transform the paper or canvas into images and illusions. Being a diverse artist, she also writes poems and songs about her paintings.   Her greatest inspiration comes from God, "Without him I would be nothing. With him I can be everything I want to be."
     The artist has been painting seriously for many years. She is mostly self-taught. She learns from books, videos, workshops and life itself.    She has studied with notable artist as Albert Handel, Maxine Masterfield, Miles Bates, Judi Betts, and Douglas Walton, while the works of Monet, Renoir, John Singer Sargent and Berta Morrisot continue to challenge her.
     AnnElla's work has been part of exhibits and juried shows throughout the southeast, and she has received numerous awards.  She has also illustrated a book, (The Mermaid of Bayou Caillou), written by Christy Viviano.
