Longtime Vicksburg artist Ann Biedenharn Jones has gathered a collection of work from her life as an artist and put them together in an aptly named book, “Art and Life.”
In her self-published book, Jones said she attempts to show her lifelong love of painting still lifes, portraits and wildlife.
“What I was trying to do was track my life, the development of the painting career and then show the paintings in each phase, each decade,” said the 67-year-old Jones who has been painting “since I was a kid.”
