Meet Lauri Koo
Throughout my life I'd always heard the phrase "stop and smell the roses" which could be taken as a metaphor to take time to appreciate the beauty around you, or the actual act of admiring roses. I finally understood both meanings and have done my best to apply them to my own life daily. I am happiest when I am out in nature exploring whatever I find fascinating or interesting whether it be a flower, a bird, a tree or an animal.
Just a few years ago the timing and opportunity allowed me to explore more of my creative interests of photography and painting. I am inspired by the awe and beauty that surrounds me here in the Arizona desert. Come and take a journey through my lens and brush. Commissions are welcome as my schedule permits.
So grateful to the Sonoran Arts League for winning 2nd Place for my photograph of "Drunk on Love" for the Collector's Find Exhibition. Show runs Nov. 16-Jan. 10, 2024.
