ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This painting is 60 x 60 cm and is one of the first paintings in my new series: the Garden Series! A visit to the Vordenstein gardens in the autumn of 2022 inspired this and other paintings in my new series. “Blue Garden” is the story of a bit of chance and is an example of staying open through the painting process. My intention with this painting was to make a dense background of green foliage. When I want a dark background, I will sometimes paint the entire surface of the canvas to cover the white or beige of the linen/canvas. This time, I painted the background a dark but brilliant blue. As I progressed with my painting, I found that I didn’t want to cover the blue with the greens as planned. Instead, I kept and enhanced the blue and adapted my idea for the painting. The different positions of the blossoms and the pops of yellow, light green, and white make this painting pop.

Laura K. Smith (1989) is a Canadian-born landscape painter based near Antwerp, Belgium. From a young age, Laura drew and painted with her grandfather (‘Opa’) and was inspired by the Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art movements she learned about in school. In Canada, the United Kingdom, France and Belgium, Laura studied Studio Fine Arts, Art History, and Art Theory, and earned a Ph.D. in Literature in 2018. Laura has worked in academia and as an art consultant, gallery assistant, and researcher, for internationally renowned art institutions including the Victoria and Albert Museum and Colnaghi, the first commercial art gallery in the world. She is now pursuing her own painting practice professionally. Peaceful, joyful, strong, colourful, dream-like, and haunting are some of the ways in which Laura’s paintings have been described. Using acrylic on canvas, Laura paints colourful landscape scenes of her home country of Canada and her new home country of Belgium with the aim of sharing the joy that she experiences in the practice and appreciation of art. More recently, Laura has started working in watercolour. Complementary to her painting practice, Laura writes about her process and inspiration in her blog, available on her website.
