Special collector perks!

When you have painted for awhile, there a certain paintings that have been a larger part of your artistic journey. There rare painting are selected to be made into giclees- gallery quality canvas prints  that capture the depth of color of the originals.Here are my favorites...

I have a wonderful group of collectors, some having multiple originals or prints. I created "Laura's FIRST CHOICE Art Group" on Facebook to keep them up to date on the progress of my art and because of their continuing support, I am offering new work here first. As an added bonus there are members only pricing on specific art sales. 

January's special is the Giclee collection  offered at 25% off retail for all members.

If you would like to join our group, please look up 'Laura's FIRST CHOICE Art Group" on Facebook and click the join button! 

I am planning a few more show and sales including desserts and wine, florals and Palette Knife. I look forward to sharing my art with you!

Pearl has selected a large Koi /waterlilly painting. Her oil painting technique is to use an underpainting, then layer on colors to get rich colors and great depth.

Kayla is a wildlife artist and is inspired by Carl Brenders. She is contining her art education and will be a high demand  graphic artist! I love being her art coach...she's going to paint a tiger next!

Cathy is adding the second layer in her step by step oil painting of Sweetpeas.Her approach to Realism is to correctly paint the values in a unified color, then glaze and paint the rich oil paint overtop. Stay tuned...the result will be spectactular!

Janelle is doing an oil painting portriat. This child portrait is larger than life, and is sooo appealing! The background color will really set off the hair. What color will she pick???
