Western Luminosity Opens Tomorrow!


My first solo show with Viridian Artists, Western Luminosity, opens tomorrow, October 6. If you are in the New York area, please stop by for the opening reception on October 8, from 6 to 8 PM.

Viridian Artists is located at:

530 West 25th St. #407

New York, NY 10001

The Press Release:

Viridian Artists Inc. is pleased to present an exhibition of recent paintings by Laura Guese.

Open, vibrant and endless skies speak to the very heart and soul of human emotion. “Western Luminosity,” Laura Guese’s first solo exhibition with Viridian Artists, focuses on these infinite, haunting, and emotional skies. Drawing from her experiences growing up under the big skies of Colorado, Ms. Guese creates large-scale oil on canvas paintings purely from memory. Speaking of her work, Ms. Guese states, “The sky is ever-changing and never duplicated. The feeling of insignificance is overwhelming when observing the sky. The atmosphere has the power to evoke a full spectrum of true emotion, which I find fascinating. It is for these reasons that I am obsessed with exploring the emotional aspects of sky and atmosphere.” Laura Guese’s work can be found in private, public, and corporate collections, including various hospitals that have acquired her paintings due to their healing and therapeutic nature.

Thanks for your support! Hope to see you there!
