“Your diamonds are not in far off distant mountains or in yonder seas; they are in your own back yard if you but dig for them.”  `Russell H. Conwell~

Laura, a lifelong Hoosier finds her greates inspiration along Indiana back roads and fields.  She enjoys exploring these paths working at her easel “en plein air” or creating field studies along with photos for use in her home studio.  Her work reflects her passion for the charm of the commonplace scenes she discovers along the way.  Through her artistic vision she invites viewers to notice the “diamonds here in our own back yard.”
