Meet the Artist
Hi, I’m Lauren Harkness, and I’m glad you are here! I graduated from Liberty University with my Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art and Bachelor of Science in Graphic Design with a Minor in Business. I love the fine art world of painting, drawing and sculpting, observing the beauty of the world around me. I enjoy painting and drawing landscapes, portraits, animals, architecture and much more. My travels to Europe have had a major impact on my Studio work, especially in the scenery and Impressionist style.
I also enjoy the world of design, especially observing how design is all around us! I love how design can have an everyday impact on the way we live our lives and see our world. I hope to create designs that are impactful and connect people to the world around them.
Travel
One of my greatest inspirations, especially in my Studio Artwork, is the places I’ve traveled to. I was fortunate to do a Study Abroad in London, England during my undergrad, and traveled to France, Switzerland and Italy. I love capturing the world around me on canvas and in clay!
Equestrian
Another one of my passions that inspires much of my artwork is horses. I grew up horseback riding from the time I was 8 years old and I enjoy connecting with the animals and admiring their beauty through my artwork.
