Laura De Loach is a contemporary artist whose work is defined by bold color, dynamic energy, and a thoughtful balance between playfulness and structure. Her paintings embrace vibrancy and movement, reflecting both her creative spirit and her belief that chaos and intention can coexist harmoniously. While her whimsical style is immediately recognizable, closer examination reveals an underlying sense of balance, rhythm, and careful composition throughout her work.

Born and raised in a small town just outside of New Orleans, Louisiana, Laura credits her upbringing for igniting her passion for art. Surrounded by the city’s rich history, diverse culture, live music, food, and deep sense of community, she developed an early appreciation for creativity as a vital part of everyday life.

After completing college, Laura set out to build a life beyond her hometown and has spent the past eight years living in Denver, Colorado. There, she found inspiration in the city’s thriving creative scene and strong support of local artists and businesses. For several years, she followed a traditional corporate career path before realizing that creativity was an essential part of her identity and could no longer be set aside.

In 2023, Laura made the decision to leave her corporate role and pursue art full time—a turning point that led to the creation of La Nola Studio. Supported by family and friends, she committed fully to her practice and has continued to grow her artistic vision ever since.

Laura currently works primarily with acrylic paint on canvas, often incorporating acrylic paint pens to add intricate detail and depth. Her portfolio includes both abstract and portrait work, reflecting her belief in creative freedom and resisting artistic limitations. She is focused on expanding her mural work and commissioned projects, which continue to challenge and inspire her evolving practice.
