Webb grew up in the Jim Crow south surrounded by a loving, nurturing, and caring community. However, he came to realize the people who made up that community were vastly under-represented in the artworks that were available to them. He asked himself, “What makes me unique? How do I make a mark that would suggest something about me, the African American? How do you know it when you see it in a gallery? What makes you say, ‘Oh, that’s African American'?"
A co-founder of the New Orleans Contemporary Arts Center (CAC), Webb’s work is included in the permanent collections of the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, the New Orleans Museum of Art, and Dooky Chase Resturant. He has also exhibited at the Stella Jones Gallery, The Ohr-O’Keefe Museum, the African American Museum of Dallas, the Chattanooga Museum of Afro-American Culture and History, the Alternatives Museum, the Atlanta Arts Festival, the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, the Arthur Roger Gallery, and Max Hutchinson Gallery in New York. He is also an arts educator with a BFA and an MFA in sculpture from Louisiana State University.
