Laura Thompson
Laura Thompson is a professional artist originally from Rochester, New York; transplanted to Harrisonburg via JMU in 1998. Laura's oil paintings feature still life subjects that provide commentary on topics like parenting & social issues, while her more recent mixed media work explores the relationships of unlikely characters in surreal settings. No matter the media, her work often conveys absurdity and tension through the use of juxtaposition, and a dash of humor.
