“I do not try to reproduce the landscape itself but to convey what I feel and experience. To capture the essence of the place.”

Laura is drawn to:

The forms in nature
The colours in nature
The textures in nature
The shapes in nature
The patterns in nature
The feel of nature
The joy of nature
The balance of nature

Presence and imagination is how she aims to achieve this.

Her practice is varied combining and working with a variety of materials and techniques. Largely textile based but not exclusively.

Currently Laura’s work is focused on the Severn Estuary enjoying the tidal environment that changes constantly and is never still. She has started to collect pigments from the site, then to process them to apply to cloth to which she adds stitch to create both 2D and 3D pieces.

Humour is another element Laura likes to embrace and these pieces interject her makings from time to time often with an environmental message.
