Art by Laura Layton

Thanks so much for taking the time to view my website.

I am a 26 year old artist from Tahekeroa – a rural area north of Auckland.  I am lucky to be surrounded by native bush and the beautiful birds of New Zealand, which inspired my first drawings in coloured pencil and pen.

I've always enjoyed experimenting with different mediums and styles, but acrylic paint has now become a firm favourite.

I love to paint intricate and detailed birds and animals, sometimes adding a touch of whimsy or a little scene to create a story within my painting.
 
I hope you enjoy your journey through my art and find something which you love just as much as I loved creating it.
