ABOUT LORI
About me…
Creativity has also been part of my life - but when the pandemic hit and I had time to sit and think about what I REALLY wanted to do - painting was the answer - and it has been such a blessing in so many ways.
Besides making art, I’ve also been fortunate enough to create and teach art programs through various creative companies like Let’s Make Art and Archer and Olive.
Art has already taken me places beyond my imagination. I’m excited to continue to lean into creativity as this journey continues.
LOVE OF COLOR
Putting beautifully pigmented color and texture to paper, canvas, etc - gives me energy and life.
SHARING MY WORK
My artistic path is a bit of a winding road that has taken a few different twists and turns but yet continues to circle back to a desire to create, to express and to share my work.
While raising my family, I began a photography business, specializing in family and high school senior portraits. In 2012, I co-founded a design business creating upscale artist templates and designs for the creative entrepreneur. Art and creativity have always been a part of my life whether through vocations as a floral designer, teacher, photographer, designer, painter, or in any other capacity in which I have the opportunity to enhance, rethink, or find creative solutions.
Mixing vivid colors, making bold marks and developing subtle textures helped me to express all of the “stuff” that I had been holding inside. Painting has become a deep passion of mine and a necessary act to heal and uplift me and hopefully those I share it with.
