About Lori

Welcome!  I am a traditional media artist and homemaker in the Seattle, WA area.  I specialize in human figures and portraiture, in graphite and watercolors particularly.  I've also worked with inks and acrylics, and basically use whatever suits the project.  You'll notice in the gallery that I also dabble in other crafts, such as sculpting.  I've been drawing and painting all my life, growing with the aid of some really wonderful mentors here and there.  

I think that art in any form is highly therapeutic and healing, and should not be designated only for certain level of skill/devotion.  Even an occasional doodler of cartoons is an artist!  Poetry, scrap booking, calligraphy, carpentry - it all allows us to take an idea in our heads and turn it into something we can share with others.

When not making with the art, I love to cook and read.  I have practical pagan leanings, progressive politics, and supporting the LBGTQ+ community.  Oh, I love karaoke, too.
