Laura Crawford

I paint in acrylics — vibrantly colored scenes from nature: rolling landscapes, flowing cloudscapes, mountains, trees, gardens, and flowers. The unifying theme to all of this is flow and change: each scene is fleeting and captures a moment; my hope is that this sense of fleeting beauty inspires mindfulness - of appreciating and celebrating these moments when they occur.

I come from a family of painters and, in addition to their modeling, teaching, and inspiration, have had off and on formal art training over the years. I am a full-time artist and live in Broad Ripple Village in Indianapolis with my beloved sculptor husband and our old, bossy cat.
