Laura Kiro's passion for art started at a very young age. At 13 years old, Laura took a fine arts class as an understudy to a top art Professor named Ms. Becker, whom Laura credits to discovering her talent. It was at just 13 years old that Laura's first work of art won best in show at the Campbell House Gallery in Geneva, Il. After high school, she immediately went into a career in Retail Management. As her job grew, her time for painting lessoned. It was while visiting London, Paris, and Amsterdam that Laura decided she was ready to solely pursue her art. Combining her vast knowledge of the arts, visual displays, sales strategies, and overall love for adding bright art into the world, she has burst onto the art scene. Laura's work is centered around the emotion “happiness”. She translates that through vibrant colors and playful scenes. "I always like to say that I paint feelings”, she says. She utilizes a rainbow of colors that are bold and really pull you in. "The intention is to put a smile on your face and brighten your day. "It gives me so much joy to see the smiles when people find my work for the first time. With each piece that sells, I know I’m adding color and inspiration to the world. This is priceless for me."-Laura Kiro
