Helen DeRamus
Artist
Helen DeRamus (b.1942) is an accomplished artist from the cultural city of Atlanta, Georgia. Reared among the historic riches of Grant Park, she harbored a deep fascination for arts from a tender age, receiving her first camera from her father at the age of eight. Dabbling in dance, piano, and guitar throughout her childhood, she also attended public schools where her exceptional academic prowess granted her an early admission to the esteemed Emory University. At Emory, DeRamus found herself gravitated toward history, particularly Art History, and it paved her path towards a lifelong romance with art and its influences. She explored intricate aspects of art studies, delving into advertising art and figure drawing at the Art Center of Northern New Jersey. Post her formal studies, DeRamus straddled multiple roles, designing children’s accessories and teaching in New Jersey. What brought her back to art was her successful career running her own photography business, which then expanded into abstract still life and nature photography.
For her creative process, DeRamus prefers translating her intuitive sense into abstract images realized through charcoal, pen, watercolor, and lithographic crayon before beginning a painting. The real magic, according to her, resonates in the absence of a rigid plan, allowing multiple layers to form organically. Her art subtly reflects her own experiences with the natural world, echoing an intoxicating blend of childhood memories, travel tales, and poetic musings inspired by Robert Macfarlane and others. Her artistry has been appraised in numerous group and solo exhibitions, with some of her contributions featured in decorating TV series and print magazines.
She is represented by TEW Galleries, Atlanta, Georgia and Roan & Black Gallery, Saugatuck, Michigan, Art Alley, Birmingham Alabama and RobertKent Galleries in Marietta, Georgia. Her work is placed prominently in the Jacksonville State University Permanent Collection, the Dr. John Burd Estate, Piedmont Hospital, and Livingston College, Federal Home Loan Bank in Atlanta, Georgia, among many others collections.
DeRamus’ art emanates an uplifting and calming aura that universally appeals to her wide fan base. They often find her art reminiscent of serene landscapes scattered across the country, alluding to natural formation, subtly expressed in soft color palettes.
