Lauren Forcella is an award-winning contemporary impressionist and professional artist with 30 years experience. She works 'alla prima' with classic oils and brushes using generous impasto texture and bold color. Alla prima, or premier coup (meaning "at first pass"), is a painting style whereby the paint is placed where one intends it to stay. There is no letting it dry and reworking. This style is fresh and immediate and perfect for capturing emotional intensity. Forcella's work has been compared to Tom Thomson of the Group of Seven, and of course Van Gogh, who she credits as her favorite artist and biggest influence. Of the studio snapshot she says, "I prefer to be camera shy and a collector snapped this picture of me anyway—but I love the piece in progress, so here you go!"
