Laura Elyse
I was born in Kansas City and moved to Colorado 16 years ago, and now live in Monument, CO with my partner, children, and pets. My art journey began in 2D work, but over time has evolved into 3D explorations, where I experiment with scale and mediums to bring my subjects to life. I hold an Associate of Arts from PPSC (2022) and a BA in Visual Arts from UCCS (2024).
My art is all about celebrating the fun and whimsy of the natural world, embracing a wide range of materials and techniques, from paintings to sculptures, letting creativity guide the process. Inspired by my love for animals and nature, I create pieces that spark joy, curiosity, and a sense of wonder. Each work is an invitation to see the world through a playful lens, capturing the charm of my subjects.
For me, the thrill lies in the challenge of bringing beauty and delight to life in unexpected ways. My work is a reflection of my belief that art should not only inspire but also bring a smile to those who experience it.
