About Laura Jemison

As a child, a large part of my development came from/through observation. My world is dominantly a visual one. My entire life has been and is colored by art. One might say, I strive to live an "artful life".

What appeals to me most is color, and mixing colors, combined with the lushness of the viscosity of paint. I consider a work a success when the activity of the brush work, works hand and hand with the paint; reflecting my inner energy. I currently strive to improve my expertise to enhance my range of values within that color structure. I also try and paint not only the objects themselves, but at Cezanne strove to do, by" PAINTING THE SPACES BETWEEN"

Each work helps me define that voice. I strive to combine my love of color with a free and energetic hand. I continue my artful life, still observing, still drawing and still painting.
