Artist Spotlight: Laura McCarty

Oct 9

We are thrilled to introduce a stunning collection of contemporary still-life paintings by new gallery artist Laura McCarty. Laura McCarty is a talented Florida-based artist and we are so excited to welcome her to the Gregg Irby Gallery family!

This new series brings a fresh approach to a classic genre. The details in her still-lifes are often playful, but the compositions overall remain peaceful. Laura’s original paintings are masterfully balanced: flowing lines mirror geometric forms while bright colors manage to compliment more muted tones. Soothing and visually-striking, these one-of-a-kind artworks are perfect for adding warmth and timeless character to any space.
