About the artist: Laura Jewell currently lives in Sioux Falls, SD where she is able to enjoy time in her studio each day. Often gathering inspiration, references and sketched ideas in the summer and then settling down and taking advantage of the long South Dakota winters to reflect and express her thoughts through art. Laura is most drawn to what she considers abstract landscape. Sometimes the work is inspired by grand scale vistas, and in others a very minute aspect of the landscape may be what prompts her to create the artwork.
