ABOUT PHIL GALATAS

Our judge for the 2024 Spring Art Show: Brushstrokes & Beyond is Phil Galatas.   

Phil is a native of Slidell, Louisiana, whose roots run deep along Bayou Liberty on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain, the place he will always call home. His work is included in public collections including the Ward Museum of Wildfowl Art, the Phillips Petroleum Museum of Oklahoma, and the Louisiana Museum of Art. His art has been featured in exhibits at the National Geographic Headquarters in Washington, D.C.; various exhibitions in New York City; the Easton Waterfowl Festival in Easton, Maryland; and in several cities in Japan. After establishing professional ground as a 3-time World Champion Wildfowl carver, Phil was inspired by Louisiana’s bounty, such as the Creole Tomato, the Ponchatoula Strawberry, and the Louisiana Satsuma, to create functional art lamps. Limited in number produced, each lamp is hand-carved from Tupelo Gum and Poplar wood sourced in Louisiana. They are painted in acrylics and shellac.
