Big Freedia, The Queen of Bounce

2016

I chose to paint Big Freedia because I was part of the Guinness Book of World Records for Twerking in 2014. I woke up one morning and told my family that I had a dream that I needed to help Big Freedia win the twerking world record. My daughter said, I could still participate because it hadn’t happened yet. It was scheduled for later that day or the next day. Surprising everyone, including myself, I went. I am not sure if they counted my sweet darlin’ and me in the final number because you had to be continuously twerking correctly. Fortunately there is no video of that. Big Freedia was the star of that contest. She is beautiful and her personality is bigger than the sky.

Artist + Nancy Wolfe Kimberly

Nancy Wolfe Kimberly, aka Gator Girl, is lover of all things New Orleans. New Orleans is her muse. Wherever she looks she is struck visually and spiritually by her surroundings. Whether it is a Mardi Gras Indian in his dazzling suit, an alligator sunning herself along the bayou, or a quiet cemetery in the evening, New Orleans speaks to her heart. When she paints she has two goals, to spread healing energy to the city and to spread the New Orleans attitude of love to the rest of the world. Nancy Wolfe Kimberly is a New Orleans artist living and working in the Uptown neighborhood.
