Louise Cochrane, American, 1916 - 2015 (Artist)
A much-beloved Richmond artist and philanthropist, Louise Cochrane began painting in 1970 while taking classes at the Tuckahoe Woman's Club. This coincided with her initial involvement with the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, volunteering with the Artmobile, an educational offering that travelled original art to different parts of the Commonwealth. By 1977 she had joined the museum's Council and trained to become a museum docent. She continues to serve on the museum's board of trustees and to paint, particularly floral still lifes.
