Artist

Laurie Jiobu

When not painting, I'm often in the water swimming in a pool or in the ocean, or learning to surf. Many years ago, I was a modern dancer and choreographer.

​

Light and color have always been the main interests in my work. Previously, my oil paintings were geometric. Now I have a new-found freedom in using gesture and spontaneity, bringing in my love of movement.

Recently, I've been painting with acrylics on wood boards and also watercolor on paper.
