In the quiet, turbulent struggle of parting, there’s a lasting spirit of life. Laura Peterson's oil paintings offer a reflective exchange of invitation and release within this tension—serving as a door that honors connection that once was, and continually exists. With color and translucency she hopes to reveal the lingering remnants of what we loved and love so deeply.
