This is today. I’ve been looking at this painting in my studio for weeks now and just realized it needs more colour. To 2021. To more of this, to more colour, to more light!

Sending these two littles off to their forever home today. Thank you to everyone who continue to support the arts! It truly is a labor of love. If you sense a bit of desperation in our voices lately, well it’s because it’s there. Like so many other industries, we are just holding on. Trying to reinvent ourselves, trying to find new ways to connect and continue to do what we do best. Trying to create during a time of darkness. Please support local businesses. Pleas...e support artists! . . . . #oiloncanvas #artistsoninstagram #artist #painting #artoftheday #artwork #lovetocreate #liveauthentic #thatsdarling #artisticprocess #creativityfound #makersgonnamake #livethelittlethings #artforlife #creativehappylife #createeveryday #risingtidesociety #instaart #makersmovement #howitsmade #creativeprocess #createcultivate #studioartist #carveouttimeforart #artforyoureveryday #creativeminds #creativelife #calledtobecreative #creativelifehappylife #flashesofdelight See more

Today I’m working away on a new #artistsupportpledge piece! I attempted to capture the mixing process here on my daughters old iPad, duct taped to my phone holder, so the video is all sortsa wonky and you may notice how I’m pouring my quick drying without removing the cap? yep, the caps sealed shut, so I had to saw through the bottle to make an opening! It’s been a good day! But hey, at least my studio smells of oil paint and good things are happening

'I have only one thing to do and that's be the wave that I am and then sink back into the ocean' I'm a little late to the game.

I invite you to wander through my space and have a look at all available paintings on my studio walls.

How are you doing? It’s a lot right now and I’ve stepped back - taking a much needed social media break. In actuality it’s more of a survival break. A just getting by break. An everything else falls away break. But I wanted to pop in and let you know that I’m right there with you. Getting by. I have a few new paintings to post. It might happen. It might not. But know I’m still here and hope to be back to my full creative force very soon. Lots of love, Laura

This piece of mine hangs in the Four Seasons, Toronto. At the entrance to an amazingly 100% all Canadian art collection. A collection I helped to curate so many years ago and one that still resonates with me. @fstoronto . .... . . . #oiloncanvas #artistsoninstagram #artist #painting #artoftheday #artwork #lovetocreate #liveauthentic #thatsdarling #artisticprocess #creativityfound #makersgonnamake #livethelittlethings #artforlife #creativehappylife #createeveryday #risingtidesociety #instaart #makersmovement #howitsmade #creativeprocess #createcultivate #studioartist #carveouttimeforart #artforyoureveryday #creativeminds #creativelife #calledtobecreative #creativelifehappylife #flashesofdelight See more
