The dream is impossibly beautiful: being
underwater, suspended in a miraculous liquid
emerald, with flashing fish-like beings all around.
Awe turns to panic: I can’t breathe here.
Or can I?
Water rushes into my lungs...and it is like air. I
am breathing underwater.
This painting is the moment just before I become magic.

Laura Fauman
Pitt Meadows, British Columbia
Laura is a Vancouver-raised painter noted for rich layering of acrylics, often using her bare hands, and refined attention to the play of light. She evokes the liminality of dream states, deep memory, and emotional intensity in her paintings of iconic BC views, archetypal imagery, and figurative portraiture.
"My paintings are uttterly mad flusters of response to the awe and ache of beauty I encounter in my natural, humanmade, and imagined worlds. The experiences fill me with wonder and affirm my own presence. Art is my delighted cry: I am here; this is gorgeous; it matters."
