Laura, who works under the name of L.L. Jones Wright, was born and raised in Southwestern Ontario in the Ingersoll area. Her formal art education has included studies at H.B. Beal Secondary School, London, under Herb Ariss; York University, Toronto; and Lambton College, Sarnia.

Laura has worked in a variety of media including pottery and soapstone, but concentrates at present on two-dimensional works in collage, coloured pencil, pastel and acrylic. Recent works include explorations into the effects achieved by mixing and layering different materials and media.

Laura has had three shows at the Gallery In The Grove, in Bright’s Grove. She has also exhibited in numerous shows in Ontario and Michigan. Her work can currently be seen on an on-going basis at Baillie’s Picture Framing in Grand Bend, where she works, or by private appointment at her home and studio, in Parkhill, where she lives with her husband Doug.

Anne Luxton has been a textile artist for over 15 years. She uses fabric that she has
painted, dyed, bleached, torn or manipulated in combination with found objects both old and
new including lace, beads, thread, wire, paper, felt, twigs, seeds, plastic and anything else!
Using nature as her subject, her recent work has evolved into painting fabric or paper and
adding stitching. She has participated in many juried shows over the years and has won
several awards. Anne’s work hangs in private and public collections and is available during
the Grand Bend Studio Tour, the Elora-Fergus Studio Tour and at the Carnegie Art Gallery in
Dundas, ON.
