Laura Guese

With striking depth and luminosity, Laura Guese captures transitory wonders of the sky in stunning hues. Cognizant of beauty's ephemeral nature, Guese dramatizes the concept of impermanence through sublime expressions of color that not only replicate skyscapes with true-to-life brilliance, but preserve moments in time. Saturating durable watercolor paper with lightfast pigments, Guese ensures that these moments will endure. Reverent and contemplative, Guese takes her admirers on breathtaking journeys of light, where color softens and intensifies, waxes and wanes with the rise and disappearance of the sun. Laura Guese's paintings have been exhibited in Colorado and California , most notably at the Hearst Art Gallery in Moraga , California. Laura received the prestigious Hearst Art Gallery Purchase Award in May of 2005, and will be exhibiting in New York and Washington D.C. in 2006.
