Laurie S Auth was born in Washington, DC. She graduated from the University of Virginia majoring in literature and art history. In her fourth year, she concentrated in studio art and knew that she wanted to further her studies in printmaking and painting. She completed her Masters degree in Fine Art at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

She paints abstract landscapes and figurative works in a range of mediums including oil, acrylic, gouache, ink, pencil, and collage — and creates three-dimensional mixed-media sculpture and relief.

Over the past few years, she reconnected with her early printmaking studies and has created digital works, using Photoshop as her new silkscreen mode.

She lives and works in Nashville, Tennessee, and exhibits her work locally, nationally, and on social media.

"Understand, I'll slip quietly away from the noisy crowd when I see the pale stars rising, blooming, over the oaks. I'll pursue solitary pathways through the pale twilit meadows with only this one dream: You come too."

～ Rainer Maria Rilke
