    Mountains have been a mainstay of my 20 year artistic journey. All the seasons. 

    hello winter |  hello mountains 

    When I travel, its to experience the Calm. To feel Awe. 

    Alps. Himalayas. Grampians. Apennines. The Snowys. The Rockies. Victorian High Country. Appalachians. South Island.

    ​

    Unique beauty in each one. 

    ​Held in private and corporate collections, hotels, restaurants and galleries worldwide. My landscapes are tactile, layered moments of a season and place. 

    Each piece is unique and invites you to reflect on your own sense of awe and quiet.

    " Laurie custom made a huge 3m artwork for us.

    She used key accents from the room - such as the navy fabric of our King sofa and beige colours of the wooden floor to create a jaw dropping statement artwork.

    We love it - the commission process was so easy! "
