Item Description
"Laura Griffith was born with an artistic nature. Her early life in New York was enriched by that city's great cultural institutions. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin as an English major; however, her favorite classes were art history.
She then moved to the West Coast to earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts (summa cum laude) from the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, California.
Her orchard in Sonoma, Ca. proved to be a source of inspiration. She found the fruit itself, with its intricate shadow, reflection and light, to be the essence of her vision. The pears, apples and persimmons from her orchard had personality, and Laura focused on drawing out their elegance and drama. With the spotlight on the fruit, the artificial objects became extraneous.
Laura Griffith's elegant still life oil paintings hang in major collections around the world, including Addison Art Gallery in Orleans, MA. She also is represented by The Living Gallery, Ashland, OR; Russeck Gallery, San Francisco, CA; Fairmont Gallery, Sonoma, CA; Michael Murphy Gallery, Tampa, FL; and Mason Murer Fine Art, Atlanta, GA.
