BIO
I like to paint all subject matter, but my preferred focus is Pet Portraits. I like to keep their memory alive in a life-like watercolor portrait.
Un-interrupted painting, music, a bouquet of fresh flowers, the fragrance from a lit candle, and a glass of fine wine. These are my key ingredients to a successful painting experience. Cheers!

TESTIMONIALS
Laura, your painting of our beautiful Siamese cat, Token, is absolutely exquisite. Your ability to capture his physical features with such flawless precision is evidence of your special and rare talent. Not only did you perfectly transcribe Token's physical features, but you somehow brought out Token himself! His internal disposition and the nuances of his personality radiate beyond the features, from his eyes, and through the painting itself! How do you do it??!! The painting is amazing, and equally amazing is its painter.

Thank you Laura for creating another watercolor masterpiece of my new beagle Abigail (Abby)! Your beautiful painting will be added to my three other beagle wall paintings all created by Laura! Her paintings are AMAZING and I highly recommend her work. Thank you Laura for my stunning painting .

I commissioned Laura to paint 2 pictures of my Fiance's dog as a birthday gift for her! I could not have come up with a better gift! She was overwhelmed. Once they are framed, she wants them in her office at work. This is something that she will keep and enjoy for the rest of her life. Her Dog is only 7 and he is like a son to her and very much part of our daily life. Thank you Laura, the likeness is excellent, especially his eyes, we feel like he is looking at us!

Wow! Laura made my two large loves come alive on my office wall. Their personalities come through in such a bright and cheerful way. I smile when I see this every time!

Birdie was my loyal friend, a friend I will never forget. I am so thankful for Laura, another true friend of mine. Laura did not just paint her picture, but her personality. Birdie's kindness came through her eyes, as she is begging you to throw the ball and her smile which she always had. The painting took a little of my broken heart away. Thank you again, Laura!
