PERSONAL DATA
Jeannine Regan was born in Waurika, Oklahoma on the way to Memphis, Tennessee where her father was based with Delta Airlines. Her father, who cut short his architect career to pilot during the war was an accomplished artist, as was his mother, and her father, an architect in Bonn Germany. She was raised in Memphis, Tennessee and Dallas, Texas. A hearing loss early in childhood prompted an inward turning and an increased preoccupation with art and imaginings. Her formal art training began at age 14 when she began art instruction in oil painting and drawing. After graduation from high school and finding the prospect of more local education a dull one, she moved to Honolulu, Hawaii and enrolled in the Honolulu Art Museum Academy and the University Of Hawaii. She married John Regan, a career naval officer, and moved to many interesting spots before settling on a farm in Scottsville, Va., a picturesque town on the James River not far from Charlottesville. They have one daughter, Angela, who is director of the gymnastic center in Fredricksburg, VA. Although art was an everyday part of her life, her career from 1980 through 1996 was in psychotherapy (as therapist not patient!) She became a full time painter in 1997, and was awarded resident membership at The McGuffey Center in 2000.
