Hello! My name is Lori Earley and I am a professional artist. I photograph my models myself to use as photo reference for my paintings. Because I only shoot for about 2 months out of the year, I am rarely on this site and therefore apologize for not getting back to whoever writes me in time. If you'd like to contact me you can email the studio at info@loriearley.com. I visit this website from time to time to find new models that I think would be great subjects for my painting style.
Here is my bio below if you would like to read more about me. Please visit my website to see my paintings if you are not familiar with them and would like to see more work.
Thank You!
Lori
BIOGRAPHY:
Lori Earley is a contemporary surrealist figurative artist who began exhibiting her works in 2004. Born and raised in New York, Earley was an accomplished and gifted artist from a young age. As a maturing adolescent, she discovered her distinct style and fondness for painting deeply personal subject matter. She then began her journey towards becoming a professional oil painter through fine art training at the School of Visual Arts in New York. Her innate passion for expressing mood and emotion on canvas and paper along with her mastery of technique in oil and graphite was soon recognized, in the United States and abroad. Earley was acclaimed as an exceptional new talent, praised for her authentic portraiture. Her stylized, elongated subjects echoed Mannerist elements and the dramatic lighting of the Baroque period. Her distorted realism drew attention from established artists, collectors, and galleries on the West Coast and immediately propelled Earley to the forefront of a burgeoning art movement. Her recognition as a leading female contemporary master painter grew internationally and moved Earley into the celebrated realm of solo exhibitions in Seattle, Santa Monica, and New York City. Earley’s stunning portraits have attracted an audience of collectors who treasure owning a rare, truly unique work of art. While her femme fatale portraits mature in style and intensity, they retain her signature ethereal quality that embodies an undeniably feminine force. Her portraits always capture elusive moments in the artist's individual perception and experience, viewed through her imaginative lens.
