Johns Island, SC
Anita Laudone is a watercolorist who works figuratively using shapes and spots of color in the tradition of Bonnard, Vuillard and Sargent. She endeavors to integrate the decorative with the authority of human emotion. The subtlety of Ms. Laudone’s watercolors draws the viewer in close, and their seeming ephemerality evokes memories—a theme of her work. The connection is at once intimate and fragile, yet powerful. In capturing the humor, the joy, the travail, the melancholy–the spectrum of our condition–the viewer is asked to consider that, while we are alone, we are profoundly connected to each other by experience and empathy.
Education: Studied with nationally-known watercolorist, Charles Reid, at the Silvermine Art Center in CT, and at the National Academy of Design in NY; Connecticut College , BA, Columbia University School of Law, JD
