Whimsy & Wonder
Adding a touch of whimsy and wonder to everyday subjects is the
signature of artist Laurie Richardson.
Her paintings demonstrate a unique approach to
each subject and reflect her graphic design background. A watercolorist for many years, she now
prefers oils or pastels to express her favorite elements of art: Color and composition.
In 2008, she added mixed media (acrylic painting with collage) to her portfolio. Her
works are a joyful infusion of color, collage and composition.
