Fossa “discovered her passion for art early on ”My style and detail have provided a unique perspective that is reflective of my love for nature and fashion” An autodidact, she is well practiced in a variety of mediums, her talents in painting and drawing has also extended to the field of commercial art and design. Fossa is currently in discussions with local and regional galleries interested in her representing her work. When asked why she created an on-line outlet for her work, Fossa said “it is simply the best way to get my pieces to the folks who cannot make it to a local gallery and given that my original works are all limited editions it is the best vehicle to bring my art to my clientele.” Fossa’s works can now be seen and purchased at www.ArtByLorieFossa.com. When asked to give some insight to her future art releases and current works Fossa said “I have been working very hard on large one-of-a-kind collage and have been building out a personal stationery line as well, both will be released in the up-coming months.”
