Augusta Asberry loved art from a young age. And when she joined Sacred Heart Grammar School in Lake Charles, L.A. this love was evident when as a student she would draw pictures during class time rather than completing her assignments. Her earliest influences began in the 30s with children’s books, first grade readers, magazine illustrations, and paper dolls. While in high school, her source of influence shifted to all of the books she could get her hands on and her high school teachers, and in college she fell under the spell of artists Monet, Miró and Paul Klee. Augusta M. Asberry’s love of art was evident when as a student at Sacred Heart Grammar School in Lake Charles, L.A. she would draw pictures during class instead of completing her assignments.

In the early 50s she attended nursing school after which she worked as a nurse for 38 years. She was back at Peralta College in Oakland in the 60s where she took classes in basic design, fashion illustration and fashion design.
