Working with a loose idea of pattern and restrained color palette, Laura creates works with insistent rhythm and restrained hues. Her method of layering paint, with both transparent washes and thick, dripping coats, creates depth and allows for accident. Her hand is apparent in each line that is painted and her newest works show a tolerance for letting materials speak without correction. These non-representational paintings employ traditions of Minimalism, Color Field, Pattern and Decoration and textile arts.
Originally from Rhode Island, Laura has a BFA in painting from the Maryland Institute College of Art and has pursued a career as a full time artist for nearly three decades. Her work is in countless private and corporate collections including The Four Seasons Hotel (Chicago), Pinnacle Bank (Nashville) and Hallmark Inc. (Kansas City). Laura maintains a studio in the West Bottoms of Kansas City, MO and travels widely to exhibit in juried shows and galleries.

Laura Nugent describes her paintings as “colliding blocks of color made orderly overtime.” In her "Small Series", Nugent continues to explore color relationships in softly geometric compositions on new surfaces such as uniquely textured repurposed paper and vintage hardback book covers. After earning her bachelor’s degree in painting from Maryland Institute College of Art, Nugent spent years travelling and exhibiting her art around the country. In 2014, she was awarded the top prize at the Tampa Museum of Art’s Gasparilla Art Fest. She now resides in Kansas City and uses her studio as a gathering place for local artists. Nugent views paintings as both a vocation and a profession. She considers herself as much of a viewer of her work as she is the creator. Her process requires intense scrutiny to achieve a result that satisfies her visually. “Being a painter means inventing a problem on an otherwise pristine canvas,” says Nugent. “My first move—a painted line, geometric shape, or block of color—creates a dilemma that I may or may not be competent enough to tackle.” Variables such as mood, health, age, and time determine how Nugent tackles each “dilemma,” making the final outcome largely unpredictable and precisely human. She considers her work autobiographical because she can tell by looking at a painting what was happening around her when she created it. “My responsibility as an artist is to be observant,” says Nugent. “The work I’m making now is a future memory."
