Lily Champion (1942-2020)
Heritage Hall
Lily’s watercolors reflect the
places and people in her life. This collection was largely inspired by the
landscapes of East Tennessee where she lived for many years.
During her years in Memphis,
Lily won several awards in judged competitions. She held individual
exhibits in South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama and Tennessee. Lily was a
profiled artist in North Light Magazine and accepted many commissions. A
prolific artist, she left behind over 400 paintings ranging from these
landscapes to city scenes, portraits, seascapes and florals.
