Happy to meet you!

Are you smiling too?  Imagine having a cheerful & beautiful flower - handmade - just - for - you -  for your living spaces? 

Do you have materials that hold memories? Renovating a family cottage? Or selling the family home? Let's take some of that cherished past & make giftable memories for the whole family!  

The stories behind the materials - their source, past use or acquisition - are the inspiration in the designs of the Artfully Recycled products. Known in Eastern Ontario & Toronto since 1999 for her lush charcoal drawings, Mallorytown artist Laurie was taking an “art break” when inspiration literally re-blossomed! This new muse, was a quirky combination of garden florals, odds & sods from her Dad's garage, & home renovation leftovers that were stuffed in the shed.

Each product is one of a kind creation that often highlights the beauty of the materials. Items are created in small batches & assembled by hand. 

Commissions accepted.

I look forward to working with you!

About the artist

A practicing visual artist for over 25 years, Laurie is living the roller coaster creative life in both the visual arts & artisan markets. 

After graduating from Guelph University with a BA (Specialized Fine Arts), her practice has included teaching, arts advocate, arts juror, show organizer & grant writing. She continues to share her love of charcoal drawing & the business side of creativity to numerous artists and students in Eastern Ontario.

Her original charcoal drawings capture the implied essence of a human presence and the stillness of nature.  Over the years, she has exhibited at local eateries, regional & provincial galleries, as well as the One of a Kind. Her artwork has garnered many awards & grants including an Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation grant (2005), Emerging Visual Arts and Exhibition grants from the Ontario Arts Council. 

These drawings & others are available. Please send inquiry if interested.
