LAURIE MAHAN SAWYER WITH HER DAUGHTERS MARILYN, JESSIE and SHELBY, AND TWO-MONTHS PREGNANT WITH CLAIRE — 1994
Laurie has curated her third exhibition of “A Family Art Show.” It opens this Saturday at Toby’s Gallery.
This time it includes three of her daughters, Jesse, Marilyn and Claire; her sister Shannon and her son Evan; and her nephew Garret.
“I have gathered and wrangled my family once again and each show gains a few more participants. This time it is up to seven. Creativity runs deep in the DNA of this family and the range of mediums and styles vary greatly. There is woodwork, watercolor, gouche, pen and ink, oil and acrylic. The imagery is far-reaching.
Creativity is another thread that binds our family together.” — Laurie Mahan Sawyer, February 2016
