Here is a photo of her.  She looks like many of my cousins and reminds me of my aunts.

Her bio says she received a BFA in painting at the Art Institute of Chicago.  In 1972 she moved to New York and lived and worked there before moving to Austin.

Back in the 1990's I met Constance M. Canright, 1574 Sunset Dr., Winter Park, FL 32792.  Someone I knew had his child in her French class and said she was nice.  So I reached out to Mrs. Canright and she was very nice.  I lived in Winter Park and I actually drove by her house regularly.  Connie Canright told me she had a daughter who was an artist who had moved up to New York.  So I thought that this Sarah Canright at UT might be her daughter.  Sarah's FaceBook says she went to high school at Bishop Moore in Orlando.  Connie did have a daughter named Sarah.  So I might have met Sarah Canright's mother.

Mrs. Constance Canright passed away recently.  Here is her obituary:

Canright, Constance - age 102 of Winter Park, FL.; passed away Thursday, October 19, 2017. Connie was widowed at age 34, raised her children as a single parent and taught French at Winter Park High School. She remained an active member of her community after her retirement. She is survived by her children - Sarah, Peter, Catherine, Rachel and John and many friends and extended family.

Catherine Marie Canright of Wisconsin is a relative of Constance Canright. My father grew up in Wisconsin and graduated from the University of Wisconsin.
