Lorena Fox is a contemporary artist living and working in the foothills of Boulder, Colorado. Her paintings are known for their energetic, textural and dynamic style, often walking the line between abstract and impressionistic. She translates her trained knowledge of color and composition to acrylic painting and loves when a piece comes together in unexpected ways. Her colorful paintings are inspired by the beauty found in nature and experiences pulled from her immersion in it.

Lorena’s process usually involves quick, intuitive strokes. The sessions can be intense and focused, full of raw energy and movement around the studio. She delights in getting a piece to a visual stopping point quickly, similar to wanting to know how a really good book is going to unfold. Lorena loves texture and the tactile quality of using thick paint. She primarily paints with a palette knife, but sometimes combines with large brush strokes to build up layers to create depth, movement, and colorful harmony.

Originally growing up on a ranch in rural Montana, Lorena studied Art & Design from the University of MT as well as Graphic Design at NC State’s College of Design.
