My paintings focus on the breathtaking beauty that makes up the wine country. My husband and I are in the wine business so it has been natural for me to paint our gorgeous vines and stunning vistas. At an early age I was encouraged by a professional artist in my family, subsequently I have been painting most of my life. I have been fortunate to have studied art from many well known and beloved professional artists. Currently I am working on my MFA from the Academy of Art University. Sonoma County artist, Laura Roney, unveils her latest figurative series, Dance!. These new oil paintings explore dance in its various forms. These works translate the joy humans feel in expressing themselves through this art form. Part of human culture worldwide, dance encompasses forms that can be very structured, as in ballet, or free flowing as in a concert mosh pit. Good music can compel us to get up and move – it’s hard to be unhappy, even in these stressful times, while swaying with the rhythm. “I truly enjoy capturing the human form in action and I want these paintings to remind us of the joy of moving through dance, “commented Roney. lauraroney.com |
