Laurie Morgan - Fine Artist
Member Since: 02/16/2009
I was born and raised in Los Angeles and studied music and theatre arts at San Diego State University. After college I began a career as a band singer; touring the U.S. in rock, country, and disco groups, including a four-month solo engagement in Japan. After more than 10 years of performing, I took time off for marriage and to raise my three sons. Feeling the need to be creative and perform again, I resumed acting and also began taking art classes. Discovering an aptitude for painting, I made a commitment to paint every week and soon my work evolved into my own personal style. As a student in high school and college I worked mainly with ceramics, occasionally trying other mediums. Now I paint in both oil and acrylic. I also enjoy capturing images through photography and then recreating my own version of them on canvas. My subjects include: landscape, seascape, architecture, still life, abstract, animals and portraiture. Many of my pieces have windows, arches and pathways. They represent to me adventure, surprise and spirituality.
I truly love to perform and to create art – I’m not quite sure which I enjoy the most! But most importantly to me, whether I’m singing, acting or creating a painting, is how I’m able to touch people’s lives. With my arts I have been blessed to be able to turn strangers into friends, and I am sincerely grateful for this gift.
