Note: Rise Delmar Ochsner was born and raised in New York City where her mother was an artist. She graduated from Columbia University and Tulane Medical School in New Orleans where she practiced as an ophthalmologist for almost twenty years before retiring. She had discovered her own love of art while at Columbia and continued to paint through medical school and beyond. Ochsner earned commissions to paint Mick Jagger for a poster for his New Orleans tour stop, a portrait of Queen Noor of Jordan, Carol Burnett?s cat and fifty famous chefs for the Mondavi Winery. She relocated to Santa Barbara in 1995 to be a full-time artist, however, missing medicine, she returned to the practice in 2007. After nineteen years away, Delmar Ochsner moved back to New Orleans where she lives today saying: ?I came back for the hugs?from my patients and my friends, and I?m delighted to be here again.? Her works have been featured in numerous exhibitions locally and nationally. While known primarily as a figurative painter, Delmar Ochsner has an expressive, colorful style that translates beautifully to expansive landscapes, polo scenes and charming pet portraits.
