About the Artist

Frederich Roscher recognizing Mignon's amazing talent at a very young age taught her how to draw and paint and to study the magnificent paintings in the worlds finest museums. He imparted much of his knowledge having studied at some of the formost art acadamies, such as:

• Munchen Malschule and Royal Academy, Munich, Germany
• Academia Dellebelle Arte, Florence, Italy
• Sorbonne, Paris, France.

Mignon began painting professionally in 1959 specializing in portraits of race and show horses and show dogs. In 1962 she painted an oil portrait of her mother which influenced her to begin painting portraits of people and since then has painted the portraits of:

• President John F. Kennedy
• Princess Grace of Monaco
• Oscar Hammerstein
• Baseball great Dick Williams
• Former president of the Philadelphia Art Museum, Philip Berman
• International society
• Clergy
• Corporate Executives
• Leaders in the World of Art

Her paintings hang in museums, churches, universities, galleries, corporate headquarters and private homes throughout the United States and Europe.

Mignon not only captures astonishing likeness, but the true soul of the sitter. Art critics have called Mignon one of today's premier children's portraitists. Wildlife, sporting scenes, dogs, horses and seascapes painted either in watercolor or oil are also very popular.
