- I gravitate more toward textural and three-dimensional work, but vision and expression drive my art. I create mixed media sculpture and wall hangings that explore themes in history, symbolism, music, dance, spirituality, feminism and self.
I received my BFA in Fibers & Textiles with minors in Metalsmithing & Ceramics from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville. I have been exhibiting in juried and non-juried shows locally and nationally since 1986.

America SCORES St. Louis said… - Laura,
My name is Matt, the Marketing/Development Coordinator at America SCORES St. Louis.
We’re hosting an art show and fundraiser on March 20, 2010, and would like for you to submit one or more pieces to our event. I’ve included some information below. Please contact me if you have any questions about the project. Thanks in advance!

The Inspired Art Project enlists local artists to create and submit original works, inspired by original poetry written by students participating in America SCORES St. Louis. Started by another SCORES affiliate in the Bay Area, the Inspired Art Project is an exciting national model for community collaboration.
On, March 20, 2010, the selected artwork will be collected and displayed at our annual Inspired Art Show. Proceeds from the event will support America SCORES St. Louis, a unique, comprehensive, youth development program which uses the tools of poetry, soccer, creative expression and service-learning to equip and inspire urban youth to lead healthy lifestyles, become engaged students, and grow into leaders for their schools and communities.
Interested artists need to register ASAP in order to submit their work to the event. Artists may choose to collect 25% of the final auction price for their work, or can donate all or a portion of the commission back to America SCORES St. Louis. Other artist benefits include:
• Free admission to the event (includes two complimentary drinks)
• Free guest tickets (up to 3) to the event
• Listing on our event website, www.inspiredartstlouis.org
• Listing in our event program
For more information, please visit www.inspiredartstlouis.org or call Matt at 314-533-0302.
