About the artist

Laura Harvey - member of the Torbay Guild of Artists

My paintings are about holding onto moments that might otherwise slip by unnoticed. I’m drawn to the everyday — familiar places, quiet moments and the way light and shadow transform an ordinary scene.

Working mainly in oils, I create representational paintings from my own surroundings and experiences, using sketches, plein-air studies and studio compositions to explore the world around me.

I’m interested not only in capturing the visual details of a scene, but also the feeling within it — the atmosphere, memory and emotional weight of a particular moment.

Ultimately, I hope my paintings invite people to slow down, notice the beauty in the everyday, and perhaps recognise something familiar within them.
