History
Born in Alabama and based in New Orleans, mixed-media artist Ashley Longshore is known for her energetic, brash, and colorful works that are often as profound as they are playful. From her studio and storefront gallery on Magazine Street, Ashley Longshore creates eclectic pieces--including paintings, textiles, handbags, and more--that both celebrate and satirize contemporary pop culture, feminism, fashion, and American consumerism. Her most popular works include her larger-than-life portraits of fashion icons such as Kate Moss, Anna Wintour, and Audrey Hepburn, as well as her Trophy series, a collection of pieces exploring the theme of money and power, and Labeled series, an assortment of vibrant poster-style works featuring fun and irreverent messaging. A self-taught artist, Longshore first began to explore painting while a student at the University of Montana. She has earned comparisons to Andy Warhol due to her bold style and self-proclaimed pop culture obsession.
