The crazy cat lady, only with dogs too.
Laura is a ceramic and mixed media artist living in Fresno, California. She loves making all different kinds of art; her favorites being art journaling, acrylic painting, printmaking, and collage. Her first love, though, is ceramics. She has been making pottery for more than 12 years, and currently works as a Creative Partner Consultant for Mayco, representing their brand of ceramic bisque and glazes.
Her art contains bright, vibrant, and unusual color combinations. She is attracted to these colors like a moth is attracted to a flame, and it is very apparent in her artwork. Deep purples, yellow greens, rich reds, and warm oranges are like candy to her eyes. Her work is often lighthearted, whimsical and humorous, and her goal is to put a smile on the face of anyone who views it.
Her passion is to apply the techniques she uses in her mixed media artwork into her ceramic pieces. Many of these techniques are unique in the world of ceramics, and she loves to show students new ways to create their own clay based masterpieces.
Laura is the founder of The Peculiar Palette, a blog and website about ceramics and mixed media art. She teaches workshops around the US and sells her artwork at art shows, in galleries and on Etsy.com. She resides with her menagerie of pets, which inspire much of her work.
