This is Laurel's 11th Fine Art and Poetry volume of art, and about her 300th plus book made with amazon.com...if you have not purchased the prior art books then you have a lot of very nice surprises in store for you. Every purchase helps humanity, thank you very much. Laurel has dedicated her life to making the world a better place and has chosen the gifts God has given her to share with the world. Her love of God, family, and God's creation have been upper most in her thoughts for decades. She creates every painting and work of literature with the same passion filled spirit of one someone would expect who walks close with the Lord. This is Laurel' story, it is that simple. Laurel paints with whirling, vibrant, changing rainbows of color on her canvas and through her words in books and stories. She brings all of her artistic knowledge base and excellence into each and every single piece, be it a painting or a book, and she flies with the wind of the Lord guiding her path. Laurel has studied the most famous artists of all time and is appropriately thankful for those people who have come forth and said to her that, "Your paintings looks like a Van Gogh or Monet " Laurel appreciates what these critics see and say about her art. Laurel takes no shortcuts to minimalize any painting or book she's written. These are the things that separate Laurel from some other artists. Though Laurel hopes many artists who already do share many of the elements she incorporates in her arts will be increasingly generated in other artists globally. Laurel recognizes that 'Art Talks, ' is a very real universal language touching hearts and souls of creation worldwide. 'Art Talks' is art primarily painted or written art forms that inspire humans to love God, Mother Earth, God's creation, and humanity bringing all to the table to talk about peace and love among mankind for one another and the earth. A peaceful, loving world, can't refuse to care for the earth and it's wellness, productivity, sustainability, and leaving much of worlds glorious and wonderful places in their natural beauty way always.
