Baton Rouge's #1 lifestyle magazine since 2005

Photo of the Week: June 29, 2017

We first spotted this photo on Instagram and were drawn to the tones and texture of the artwork pictured. The painting is a study of a woman’s face on paper using three tones of oil paint, by Alexis Moon, local artist and musician.


Every Thursday, the Best of 225 This Week will select a photo of the week highlighting life in the Capital City.

We’ll be hunting down submissions on Instagram and other social media platforms, so be sure to tag your photos with #225batonrouge, or send us submissions at [email protected].
