Laura Silverman is a visual artist from Baltimore, Maryland. She has been painting and drawing for over twelve years, and received her Master of Fine Arts in Painting from the American College of the Mediterranean in Aix-en-Provence, France. She graduated from Temple University in Philadelphia, and received her Bachelor of Science in Education, majoring in Art Education. She has received a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Studio Art from Studio Arts College International in Florence, Italy.

Laura has painted landscapes and cityscapes across France, Italy, and Maryland. Her primary medium is oil paint, as its light-capturing and reflective qualities are of interest for her, but she also works in gouache, oil pastel, watercolor, pen, and graphite. Laura continues to make art in her studio outside of Baltimore, and explores how our environment shapes our identity. She works plein air, but also in her studio from her own photographs. Laura has been published in Women United Art Magazine, Issue V, Autumn 2023, and The Curator’s Salon, Spring 2024. She has shown in multiple galleries including in Italy, England, France and the United States and has works in various private collections in France, Germany, and across the United States. Laura plans to further investigate her hometown of Baltimore in her current series, exploring changing light, local ecology, and beauty in the mundane.
