About
Laura Stoeppelwerth is an emerging artist based in the city
of Atlanta, Georgia. Laura's interest in religion, mythology,
and the power of story telling through art is eminent within
the colorful tableaus she creates. She intuitively paints
striking and transformative compositions, utilizing vibrant
colors, emotions, and symbols, blending elements together
to create a sense of balance and harmony. She spends her
days reading on her front porch, creating, and taking her dog
on long walks through the city. Her artwork can be found on
her social media and website.
Snow. Focus. Revive
I was transported to another dimension for a month. I felt
every day was valuable and to be cherished like a falling
snowflake. Once I left, everything would return to normal and
all I would have were my memories. I found myself in Finland.
Found an artist within myself that I feared was not actually
there. To my surprise, I was able to create some of my most
prosperous work. I yearn to bring the feelings and teachings
of Arteles back home with me, but alas, they elude me like
wisps of the Northern Lights. I will have to be patient, and
allow my planted seeds to grow. Perhaps the only remedy is
to visit again. I'll have to ask my doctor.
