Instructor Ginger Laughlin Bio:

I’ve always been an artist to the core. In my life, though I’ve had many careers and hobbies, I kept coming back to ART! It has been my joy and this is where I find my “happy place”. Every day I evolve and discover more techniques and use of color. When people ask me how long it took me to create a painting, I answer all my life! All my life experiences and education have brought me to the place I am in my art! It’s years of experience that have brought me to where I am.

I absolutely love painting in oil, acrylic, and watercolor mediums. I can’t get enough of creating something with bright, vibrant colors! Layering color is one of my favorite techniques that bring about a rich, complex painting that upon close inspection, the beauty underneath shines through.

I like many styles of painting but have been influenced by Monet’s impressionist style and the Old Masters’ like Johannes Vermeer and Thomas Baker’s use of luminosity in their paintings. My bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design is the catalyst to continue my pursuit of painting.

My advice to anyone who is wanting to create art is JUST BEGIN! Follow your BLISS!
