New watercolor of spring flowers for the new year. 4 Jan 2016 10:39 AM (9 years ago)

New year and I have a bunch of new work in the studio. I am working on watercolors both in art and on furniture. This is the first watercolor titled Alive in a Spring Garden.

Spring garden flowers with bees and butterfly hand painted in this botanical art original by Laurie Rohner. The colors I chose for this painting range from creamy Daffodil yellows to Crocus purples with spring greens and soft Violet blues in the mix. Notice the bee tucked in the daffodil and a lazy butterfly on the leaf oh and don't miss the that other bee heading back to the hive, I guess. There is a hint of blue skies.

Now is the time for magic, woodland fairy magic. 24 Aug 2015 7:27 AM (9 years ago)

Now is the time for magic, woodland fairy magic. Let's be a wee bit imaginative and let the volatile chaos that swirls around us to evaporate if not for a second. The Dow in the New York stock exchange hit a record trading loss of 1000 points for a brief second. For just a second there was darkness and then light. Fairies are great at reminding us to not take life and things too seriously. Things never disappear they just change form. The wee woodland fairy house below is a perfect example. It has changed form. I added a few more bits and nature finds to the art studio house which makes it even more adorable. Is that even possible?

NEW Hand Painted Watercolor Furniture with Botanical Flowers. 20 May 2015 12:01 PM (9 years ago)

Don't you love this new look? 

Watercolors are one of my favorite mediums and when I discovered I could use them on other things besides paper, my mind went wild. Now I am using watercolors on clay pots and painted furniture. There is a secret to my method but I think I will keep that to myself.

Hand Painted Writing Table Botanical Watercolor Landscape with Drawer

New Design. Hand painted cottage style writing table with drawer features a watercolor botanical landscape top. This table is from the late 1890's. I thought it screamed for an updated look that still keeps the roots of the table grounded with its wonderful honey brown stained legs and drawer.

The top is custom painted with my new watercolor technique. Dancing under a sky of blue are botanical flowers of hollyhock, daisies and thistles to name a few. The edges are hand distressed.

Not to worry the custom painting is finished with several layers of varnish and waxed. This is a well made sturdy table made of pine. Use this farmhouse table for writing or working on the computer or as a dressing table in the bedroom.

Sorry but this is for studio pick up only.
Elkin NC area. Free delivery.


 hand painted garden pots and more.
Hand painted clay pot with a landscape of garden flowers

Hand painted clay pot with a landscape of garden flowers hand painted around the outside of the Italian terracotta pot. I painted an assortment of garden flowers from hollyhocks and yellow daisies to thistles and Queen Anne lace and a bumble bee.

This pot is a straight flare sided pot with a rolled rim. I see pansies in the future for this little gem of a pot. Great to give to mom or a birthday gift.

Pot size is approx. 5 x 5 inches

Painted with watercolors and sealed with clear lacquer.
Just an Idea - I use clear antique dishes as saucers.

This is a one of a kind Italian terracotta painted pot which is a bit heavier than the typical nursery pots.

Botanical hand painted furniture is fun. 

Give your home a spring cleaning and add a piece of hand painted furniture for a new look. See more of my work HERE

Watercolors on painted furniture. 18 Mar 2015 12:40 PM (10 years ago)

I will paint on any surface if at all possible with watercolors. Watercolors are underrated. I find when you combine watercolors and gouaches and apply them to a specially primed surface you can paint with them anywhere. 

Watercolor Box

This box was one of the first paintings and has been sold, I did love this box. I have some new items that I am adding to the shop at Between The Weeds. Some are just for studio pick up and a few are small enough for me to ship. 

Check out my shop here.

I work with hand painted illustration on painted furniture adding botanical flowers bees words and animals. Anything the furniture is telling me to paint. For the most part every piece of painted furniture speaks and I listen. Sometimes I will hold onto a chair dresser or even a board waiting for the whisper of what it is needed for the work. This week spring is coming. I have so many things blossoming in my studio. Now I have to find the time to photograph my work so I can share it with you.

Do stop by often to see the new work.
Enjoy!

I guess you could call me a change addict. 31 Jan 2015 8:15 AM (10 years ago)

Already a month into the new year and things are being created to meet my new vision I have for my studio. 

I am so excited with this new direction. I guess you could call me a change addict. Creation is always changing. Our lives whether we like it or not always in flux and ever changing. Some things I could do without but mostly loving every fabulous moment. My dear mother would love to go outside on a very brisk cold day and say it makes me feel alive, that is how I feel with every nudge life creates for me. Change makes me feel alive.


I have changed things on this blog. 

I am focusing on my illustrations. I am journeying down new roads and it was due to one simple phone call. Someone asking me about trees and illustrating her story. Wow never thought about illustrating but when I took a look closer I think I always have. I illustrate nature. On boxes, furniture, pillows, pendants and art all with that wonderful illustrator's eye. It took her asking to open my eyes and mind to something I am thrilled to embrace and explore. Ah...where will this path lead? Nope don't know but I am thinking my friends upstairs do. 


With paint brushes, pencils, pens, paints and paper ready I am sketching and working on some new illustrations. 

A nature art watercolor original painting is an illustration of the forest or woods. Notice the three ladies standing guard over the forest scenic landscape of the woodland. This illustration watercolor is titled Vermont Woods.

How much power one little word can have. 8 Jan 2015 11:04 AM (10 years ago)

I am amazed at how much power one little word can have over how we may think about anything. I was listening to a new podcast at The Inspiring Artist, by speaker Samantha Bennett from The Organized Artist Company, I found fantastic ideas. The one that seemed to pop out today was to stop using but and insert and. Simple and so precise.  Think about how many times a statement an action a dream is started only to find it fall away depleted and forgotten because of that tiny word but got in the way. For instance I want to sell my art BUT I have no experience. Now insert I want to sell my art and I have no experience. And becomes the connection to the answer and not the ending of your goal. No experience doesn’t mean your art isn’t any good and everyone has to start from somewhere.

Follow Your Heart 8 x 10 Watercolor by Laurie Rohner

Laurie Rohner Studio Opens a New Store at Square.com. 26 Dec 2014 7:22 AM (10 years ago)


There are some exciting new changes coming to Laurie Rohner Studio. The most recent is opening a new store at Square.com.

Store at Square.com
Order Online

As the new year progresses I will be adding new home decor, hand printed cards and journals, fairy houses and my original art. 
I have decided to break free from Etsy - though I will keep some things there in my shop. But unless things change with their approach in how they handle there business and the CEO's flippant attitude towards the security of shop owners info I am finding a more suitable way market my business. I have a bunch of things stewing in my big marketing pot. I find with trial and error the best solutions for my business tend to eventually float to the top of the mix.
This is exciting. Where will this take me? I have mapped out a plan and along the way I will make the necessary course adjustments but where or how it all turns out for 2015? Only the stars know for sure.

I like owls. While living in Vermont one morning I came downstairs opened my drapes to find a Barred Owl sitting on my bird feeder just 3 feet away. The feathers curled up in the wind and eyes as dark as black ink. From that moment on he would show himself in very unexpected places. I named him Bertram.

They are capable of figuring out which tool to use for the appropriate job or task before them. They have an extensive language and they keep our neighborhoods clean from road kill. Nice work crows.

This is an original watercolor painting not a print or reproduction.
I combined drawing with pencil with watercolor and then with ink.

Title: Crow
Card size: 5" x 7" inches
Medium: Winsor and Newton Artist Quality Watercolors on 140lb Strathmore card with deckled edges on card and envelope. .
Blank inside, each original art card comes with an envelope.

What a lovely way to say thank you, Birthdays or any time of the year. Great to give with a frame ready to be popped in and hung as a loving reminder.

You will love my individually hand-painted art cards. My nature art cards are original one-of-a-kind paintings that are suitable for framing. Great for gift giving. Can be framed later.

This is an original watercolor painting not a print or reproduction.
I combine drawing with pen and watercolor painting.

The card you will receive is very similar to the ones shown in this listing but may have some variations as each card is hand-painted and has it's own unique and individual qualities.

All of my watercolors are made with the finest archival quality materials - Strathmore Watercolor Paper and Windsor and Newton Artists Quality Watercolors.  Windsor and Newton Artist Quality Watercolors are renowned for their superior color permanence, balance and amazing color range. Each card is in a protective acid free sleeve - professionally packaged to arrive safely.

Fairy House and Fairy Furniture
Twig Woodland Fairy House
Twig woodland fairy house sculpted handmade one of a kind magical whimsical nature art creation for home and garden. The fairy house is made from cedar and pine wood constructing the floor and walls with twigs from a downed dogwood tree for the roof.


Bark and pine cone is broken up and glued by hand into place on the walls and polished pebbles frame the back window. On the top is a bench for sunbathing or nighttime star gazing with a table and two stools on the top platform for a dreamy dinner any two whimsical fairies would love.

CARING FOR YOUR NEW FAIRY HOUSE
All my houses are unique and custom crafted for the fairy living in the house. Woodland in nature is handmade from building the base to decorating the interiors. Nature inspired woodland sculpted art can be used outside or in. If placed outside expect only 1 maybe 2 years before the environment plays its part. Will last much longer inside and mist the houses, this keeps them from drying out. Keep out of direct sunlight.

These are my original designs and I hand craft each piece for my woodland fairy houses.
