EMERGING

ARTIST BIO
Lori came to art by taking the scenic route—literally and figuratively. A traveler who favors meandering backroads over fast highways, she spent 15 years as a professional journalist and in higher education public relations before fully focusing on painting in 2008.
Since then, Lori has exhibited her work in cooperative and commercial galleries in Omaha and is currently represented by Anderson O’Brien Fine Art. Her paintings have been accepted into regional and national juried exhibitions and are held in private collections throughout the United States and internationally.
Based in Omaha, Lori works from her spacious second-floor studio at the Hot Shops Art Center, a former mattress factory now home to over 80 artists working across a wide range of mediums. When she's not painting, she enjoys exploring new places and tending to her garden.
ACCOLADES
Last fall, two large paintings were selected by the ambassador to Burkina Faso in West Africa to exhibit through 2027 as part of U.S. State Department’s “Art in Embassies” program, making diplomatic connections through visual art. Information about the exhibit will be posted on the state department’s web site this spring.
In 2023, the City of Omaha bought artwork I created with Marcia Joffe-Bouska and Tom Quest for the new downtown library branch.
I’ve been awarded artist residencies at Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts
in Nebraska City , Farwell House in Frederick, Illinois, and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Cedar Point Biological Station.
My work is regularly juried into regional shows, including the Nebraska Biennial (2023, 2019 and 2017), National Abstract Exhibition, Mark Arts in Wichita, Kansas, and the 8x8 show at the Lawrence (Kansas) Arts Center.
