Reachel Mayeur is a New Orleans
native, an award winning artist, and
especially, a long-time active volunteer
here at WYES for more than 30 years.
She dabbled in art as early as grammar
school continuing high school,
constructing costumes and painting
scenery for staged productions, and
well as other art projects throughout
her life. It would not be until after she
earned a Tulane degree at night while
working full time, and after renovating
her house, that she would be able to
allow time to finally begin immersion in
art classes and workshops, truly
beginning her pursuit into fine arts.
Reachel has won many ribbons for her
watercolors and her detailed graphite
drawings. In addition she enjoys
charcoal, pastels, calligraphy and
photography. She has studied with
nationally know artists such as Don
Andrews, Judi Bettes, Linda Kemp,
Dan Thomas, and Karen Vernon. Her
local influences have been greats such
as Doris Cowan, Alan Flatman, Robert
Gutherie, Mickey Mullen, Kathy Stone,
and Glen Weber. She is a member of
many local art guilds. At the New
Orleans Academy of Fine Arts she has
studied figure drawing, sculpture,
photography. She is a gracious art
donor for WYES as well as a published
photographer. Reachel can be reached
at Post Office Box 10134, Harahan,
LA 70181-0134, 504-835-5023 or
