Laurel Archie is a professional painter and instructor in Columbia. An Illinois native, she studied fine arts at Loyola University Chicago, receiving her B.A. in 2007. She went on to complete her MFA in painting at the University of South Carolina; her graduate work was inspired by time studying modern art in Italy and France. After graduating, her figurative work expanded to include genre painting and still life traditions. Archie’s work continues to explore color theory, the tension between 2D and 3D, and the haptic nature of human interaction. Her awards include the USC College of Arts and Sciences Dean’s MFA Fellowship as well as The John Benz Painting Award. Archie currently teaches at Columbia College while maintaining a painting practice in her home studio with her husband and three children.
