SUMMARY:The Art of Laura Krug
DESCRIPTION:by Laura Krug 2025\nLaura Krug has been a resident of Stanly County for 22 years. Her home looks upon Morrow Mountain which has provided artistic inspiration at sunrise and sunset for her appreciation of nature. She worked for years as a registered nurse and has three children and 5 grandchildren. \nLaura does community service as a volunteer in several organizations including Extension Master Gardeners\, Stanly County Beekeepers\, Three Rivers Quilt Guild\, First Lutheran Church Women’s group\, the Stanly Christian Community Inn\, Friends of Morrow Mountain State Park and the Hospice of Stanly County. Laura loved taking her Therapy Dogs Valley and then Enzo to visit patients at local nursing homes\, the Cancer Center and Atrium Medical Center. Unfortunately her current dog Oscar isn’t suited to therapy work. \nLaura has been painting for about 10 years\, beginning with lessons with Beverly Dixon and now studies with the award winning local artist Janet Fisher. She received an honorable mention for an abstract painting named Fairy Lake and most recently the Stanly Arts Guild Member’s Choice Award for her painting titled Poppies. \nHer favorite classic artist is Vincent Van Gogh\, finding his approach to depicting nature and use of vibrant colors inspirational. Laura’s chosen medium is acrylic paint and has dabbled with watercolor. Laura enjoys trying new techniques and painting subjects.

SUMMARY:High School Art Shows
DESCRIPTION:Each year\, the Stanly Arts Guild works with the local high school art teachers in Stanly County to host shows for the many talented students enrolled in their classes. This includes private\, as well as public\, high schools. The teachers and students get involved in setting up the shows that showcase and encourage the emerging talent we have in Stanly county. The shows are typically 1-2 weeks in length for each school\, with a reception for the students & their families at the end of the show. There are no prizes awarded but there may be a graduating senior whose work is showcased for some schools. In these shows every entry is a winner\, but the big winners are those of us viewing the show\, as the talent and imagination of these young artists are truly amazing. \nIf you are a high school art teacher and would like to arrange dates to showcase the talent of your students\, please contact our Art Show Coordinator at The Stanly Arts Guild (email: stanlyartsguild19@gmail.com).
