Lauren Jarrett
Fine Art
I am a gardener and cook and flower lover who paints,
or a painter who gardens and cooks, whatever.
I grew up surrounded by the arts of gardening,
cooking, drawing, and living close to nature.
I have collected, named, and arranged things -
from the woods, the beach, gardens and meadows
since childhood - in accordance with the magic
that they have for me. Then I found that
I could draw them and make watercolors.
My work revolves around a series of subjects,
largely drawn from nature - sequential drawings,
watercolors, and prints that explore an idea and
reflect the balances and harmonies in nature and life.
Painting brings together my loves, interests, and skills -
a deep appreciation for nature fills my life and directs
my efforts, as an artist, teacher, and person.
I like to share the enchantment and appreciation -
the opportunity to benefit from the joy and
centering that comes with oneness with nature.
