Coastal Edge 2

Lori Dubois recalls her greatest art influence was her mom, Gloria, a talented New York mural artisan. The artist describes her mentor as artfully creative and ahead of her time. Her mother’s artistic view of nature provided Dubois with a keen eye and awareness of surrounding beauty. Dubois later applied her artistic DNA to a career in marketing, graphic art and web design at a major electronic giant in New Jersey. In the next chapter, a passion for the shoreline called her to the New England coast where she returned to her painting roots and rekindled a connection to art and nature. Her modern art focus includes a versatile collection of Abstract, Geometric and Coastal works. She enjoys experimenting with mixed media and unique art techniques to create modern tranquility. It seems her creativity and dedication paid off as her art caught the attention of art publishers and major home decor retailers. When asked what makes her art stand out, she stated, “In a word INSPIRATION. My focus on tranquility and blended abstract style enhances room design with serenity.

My versatile collections are a unique blend of color and composition intended to create a relaxed vibe. Creating art is my Zen; it keeps me inspired and connected to my mom’s legacy.” Her highly regarded Natural Elements Series introduces a blend of realistic and abstract views of nature and movement. In addition, many of her exhibitions feature unique abstractions as a portrayal of well balanced texture and refinement. Her collections are rendered primarily in acrylic and well known for capturing the essence of the sea, earth and ever-changing skyline. “How fortunate we are to have nature’s symphony of color and subjects as a backdrop for our lives. Within each day, no matter the time or season, the sky is an open canvas of infinite and perfected color and formation; we only need take the time to notice.”
