Laura Fishman

Laura Fishman is an American artist based in London who draws inspiration for her paintings from nature and her worldly surroundings. The artist uses bold brushstrokes and drip techniques to connect the viewer with these themes through the language of colour. Laura earned her BFA in Painting from the State University of New York. It was here she studied with abstract expressionist Joop Sanders, founding member of the American Abstract Expressionist group, friend and apprentice of Willem de Kooning, and with Hudson River Valley artist, Alex Martin. She continued her studies in textile design at the Fashion Institute of Technology, New York and earned her MA Fine Art at Middlesex University, London. Laura is art curator at Stephens House & Gardens, Finchley.
The artist’s work can be found in private and corporate collections in the UK, the US, the Caribbean, Europe, and the Middle East.
