 In a Day's Work

From way back in 2004 before I was blogging. That did not start until late 2006. Back then I was painting up to two paintings a day and selling on Ebay. Back then it was a perfect place for an artist that loved to paint. I was on their platform until spring 2010 when the rules made it easy for foreign artists to rip off the American Artists painting on Ebay and sell their version of our work. I left then.  By that time I had several galleries selling my work. I will always remember my first sold painting in an auction was a basket of apples.  The history of my work has been ever evolving. 

"Color is a constant in Laurie's work." The challenge to explore and discover content while painting remains primary. Navigating in this new world of 'pandemic' and fear keeps an artist honest in their trade and their exploration to tell the story of today and life today. My granddaughter reminds me....

BE BRAVE

It is through my knife work I find the best exploration. But as you see above, the pen and pencil were strong for me back then. I enjoyed doing blind pencil drawings of objects in my hand.  That process kept me loose to paint. Be Brave... is right. Pushing on to discover and explore even if the frustration of the artist creeps in and you feel you cannot paint. You have hit the wall... a dry spot and you just can't paint. I have been there often the past four years.  You pick it back up and try to push forward. Looking back over past work has inspired me to go off the grid I have been on. Glad you are here to follow along. "
