Jean Owens
I was born and raised in Paris, attending Robert E. Lee School, Grove Jr. High and graduating from E.W. Grove.
I have had a love for taking pictures for as long as I can remember. When digital came out, I thought I had died and gone to Heaven. I think it was invented for me. When I take photos, I have always wanted to see them immediately. Now that is possible.
I have to admit that I am not a professional but I do LOVE taking photos and my passion is nature.
I enjoy submitting photos to "Snap It Photo of the Day" sponsored by the Paris-Henry County Arts Council and would encourage anyone who takes pictures to enter some of yours. I also have two covers on the actual Paris! Magazine, spring of 2009 and spring of 2010. I enter Country and Birds and Blooms magazine's photo contests each year and have had three photographs published in Country. It is very inexpensive and lots of fun.
I am a Board Member of Robert E. Lee School (Arts Academy) and would like to encourage all to check out our website, The Class Schedule is on the website and we often have a photography class.
