meet LAURA

Aside from my husband, painting is my love.  I've been painting for over 20 years and cannot imagine a life without it.  I always knew that helping people discover their inner artist was something I wanted to do.   I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts specializing in painting as well as a Bachelor of Education focusing in Secondary Art.  Knowing art was going to be an important part of my life, I wanted to first put my focus on developing myself as an artist instead of taking my training straight to the public school system. 
Being a host artist with Empty Canvas allows me to focus on the FUN and truly enjoy what I'm doing.  I am so grateful for the opportunity to realize my dreams of helping people unlock their creativity.  When I'm not painting in my studio, I'm outside hiking with our dogs, camping, quading and adventuring all over the Kootenays. 
Inspired by Mother Nature, driven by love.
