I'm Laura
My art welcomes the overactive imagination; the invitation to glimpse our surroundings with exaggerated color and curiosity, and to see the world through the eyes of someone who can't get enough of it.
I interpret the world around me with mysticism, fascination and as if just a tiny bit of that acid trip never really ended. Friends have called me "all the colors in a Crayola box" and "beautifully macabre", and my art "colorful", 'bold' and "eclectic".
Much of my creative side is fueled by running around in the woods, seeking deathly stories in the desert, spending time in cities and small towns around the world, being inspired by rebellious and magnificent people and constantly exploring the edges.
I hold a degree in Specialized Technology (multimedia/web) from the Art Institute of Philadelphia, and I've received a variety of art instruction via advertising design studies, graphic design studies, and select courses from the Tyler School of Art and Architecture in Philadelphia. Though always creative, I've been dedicated to painting since 2018, working primarily with oil, sometimes in acrylic, and also create jewelry and resin pieces.
Curious, by both definitions.
