Originally from the Mississippi Delta\, Honey was trained in art at the University of Mississippi\, graduating with an extended major in art and an additional major in English. It was the English degree that provided her livelihood—as her college advisor suggested\, “Artists have a hard time making a living\, but every town needs English teachers.” This proved to be true\, and an advanced degree in English and a doctorate in Education furthered her career as a teacher\, principal\, and college professor. Art was her passion throughout\, and she brought the Arts in Education program into several elementary schools in Greenville\, Mississippi. She always created art herself\, participated in several art groups in the Delta\, Jackson\, and Fairhope\, Alabama area\, co-owned The Studio\, a frame shop and gallery\, with her sculptor husband\, Michael Dean\, and showed her work at exhibits and galleries throughout the South. Honey has since retired from education and her art associations\, but she continues to paint and occasionally enters art shows. Her home in Lucedale\, The Honeycomb\, serves as her studio and gallery. Her motto comes from an old tombstone in England: “The wonder of the world\, the beauty and the power\, the shapes of things\, their colors\, lights\, and shades. These I saw; look ye also while life lasts.”
