Laurie LaMere
Laurie LaMere has lived in Wyoming since the age of sixteen. She loves Wyoming, where inspiration is endless, and the wildlife and landscapes are food for her soul. She first resided in the small western town of Pinedale, where she finished high school, and stayed for the next 40 years. She moved to Jackson Hole with her family in 2013. There she joined the Teton Plein Air Painters on their weekly painting excursions. She soon learned that painting “en plein air” would be her preference whenever possible.
LaMere is mostly self-taught. Painting from life helped to improve her skills immensely, not to mention the sheer joy of being able to paint the beautiful Teton Range and its surrounding landscapes on a regular basis. She now lives in Ten Sleep, Wyoming and tries to spend as much time as possible painting outdoors.
Oil is LaMere’s medium of choice. She finds poetry in the combination of colors. She experiences an inner peace when working on her paintings and hopes this peace and joy is felt by the viewers of her art. She believes that art should be a refuge.
LaMere is an associate member of Oil Painters of America and Women Artists of the West; a member of the Teton Plein Air Painters, Art Association of Jackson Hole, Sublette County Mixed Media, Sagebrush Artisans; and a member and past president of Wyoming Artists Association.
