Piece description from the artist
In this artwork, I creating an alchemical mix of element. I set out to make fire and water using copper mettalic paint over resin with embedded quartz crystal tear drops. This elemental harmony is ever present for me living on the Big Island where the new earth lava meets the sea. I was taking a fire spinning ritual class and learning to use palm torches. Holding fire in my hands was overwhelming as learned to move to the music simultaneously. An ancient sacred ritual of the Hawaiian Islands, fire dancing by the ocean, is now a part of my life.

Laura McClanahan's artwork is an exploration of natural patterns. Her main thesis is a study of water forms as a metaphor for thought patterns. Through photography and painting, Laura experiments with abstract imagery inspired by nature and her inner understanding of micro and macro patterns. Her images could be celestial or microscopic, this is her understanding of "as above, so below".
Laura is a graduate of Maryland Institute College of Art with an MFA degree in Studio Art. She uses experimental techniques with color darkroom photograms, video and large format printing. Laura continues to expand her explorations via paintings with resin and gemstones. Her painting series are well exhibited in New York City and at Art Fairs.
