Laura Loving’s paintings cultivate a space of joyful energy in every room they occupy. Her work hangs in homes and businesses around the world. Laura describes her work: “I exaggerate color and shape to create art that is humorous, alive and uplifting. The evolution of my style has its roots in American Folk and Pop Art. Having lived and worked in Nice for two years, the rich artistic heritage of the French Riviera has also had a strong effect on my work.” 

Born in Charlotte and raised in Atlanta, Laura and all her southern charm have been raising the hospitality and happiness quotient of Gotham City for over 20 years. She lives in Greenwich Village where studio appointments are available in person or virtually by appointment.
