The decorative arts and nature are integral to Lori’s paintings and ceramics. She views the language of decoration as a pathway to memories, cultural habits, family, friends, and community rituals. She is inspired by 18th and 19th century illustrators and 20th century modernist painters who found inspiration in the patterns, colors and lines of nature. Lori employs bright bold colors and dynamic designs as she strives for a modern energy and edge. In her whimsical Common Birds series, Lori uses birds to explore themes of struggle, friendship, relationships, leaving and returning home and forced flight. Lori teaches art at Bridgewater State University and has exhibited her work in many one-person and group shows in galleries, print publicationsand art centers nationally.
