Laura Iverson's fine art paintings (Buddhas/Meditation)

She have been painting most of her life. she is a native Californian and much of her inspiration comes from the beautiful natural landscape of the San Francisco Bay Area...the woods, the ocean, the rolling hills, the native wildflowers and wildlife. Even the surreal tree branches in the Zen series are often taken from the gnarled old oak trees. Other inspirations include teapots  and animals, especially cats. her fascination with the paranormal pops up from time to time in the ghost paintings.

Josephine Wall's fantasy paintings

An increasing demand for character windows, led her to experiment in this field using self adhesive lead and vitreous paint, to reproduce traditional lead-lights and many of her own designs. . 

Due to her individualistic, textured use of acrylic medium, she has been invited to demonstrate and lecture to local art circles.
