BIOGRAPHY
Laura White is an Australian realist artist specialising in still life and nature inspired oil paintings. Her love for both ceramics and the garden greatly influence the realist and botanical subject matters which she prefers. Laura uses multiple layering methods and translucent glazes to achieve depth and texture in her work.
White paints full time from her studio in Berwick, providing work to exhibit both locally and interstate with subsequent sales being made both within Australia and internationally. She is a prolific artist, having held 13 solo exhibitions, as well as being involved in 56 select group exhibitions, all in the last 8 years since taking up painting as a form of therapy.
“Since starting to paint, I find myself “looking” at things with a greater intensity; truly looking at the colours, textures, contrasts, reflections and hues. I hope that by capturing this, I encourage the individual to stop and observe a little more.” White is represented by 19 Karen Contemporary Artspace (Qld), Michael Reid Murrurundi (NSW), and The Moree Gallery (NSW)
