Laurie Staller is an artist currently living and working in New Jersey, where she was born. She studied graphic design in San Francisco and has been a web designer, graphic designer, art director, and user interface designer. She started seriously oil painting during covid and immediately fell in love with the unique ability to capture light, texture, and emotion in a single image. Her paintings are centered around everyday objects that she elevates by putting them on canvas using her signature Hyperreal technique. She considers herself a portrait artist as she paints the objects like subjects, each with its own personality. Her paintings underline the beautiful and lasting nature of things we take for granted and aren’t necessarily used to thinking of as ‘art’. The objects she paints are universally relatable. Her paintings make people feel joyful, nostalgic and spark conversation.
Her first solo show was held at the JCC in Margate NJ in August of 2023.
