STAR: What is your inspiration behind your paintings? LAURA.M: As I am an ardent lover of nature.I draw my inspiration from the surround- ings.I live in a beautiful country and the landscapes here are a feast for my eyes .I try to paint on the spot .Usually we see things, especially how different types of light, atmos- phere, and weather affect our visual perception. I study this concept by painting the same subject, usually very simple, in varying times of day and types of weather and in different seasons. STAR: How did your artworks become famous? LAURA.M: I’m not sure any of my work is necessarily famous...yet ;) But my work gets the most exposure on my social feeds. I have generated quite the following of my work on Twitter though. 68
