Studio Series: Meet Laurie Anne Gonzalez

Meet Laurie Anne Gonzalez

Laurie Anne is an acrylic fine art painter living in Phoenix, AZ.  The desert landscape challenges her to explore new colors, textures, and subject matter which she carries into her Arizona paintings along with her work inspired by her world travels. When she isn’t in her studio painting, she is likely snuggled up with her pup, Hazel, or exploring the US in her camper van with her husband, Taylor, while gathering ideas for more paintings.

Why JIGGY?

I have been a fan of Jiggy's ever since yall came on the scene! Such good design and I always knew I wanted to make a puzzle and I wanted it to be with yall :) 

What are you most excited about in becoming a JIGGY Studio artist?

Having my art on a puzzle is a dream come true and being an artist, design, quality and presentation is very important to me, so I am thrilled that this dream is coming true with Jiggy!

What’s your puzzle strategy and ritual?

I love this question! Putting a puzzle together is one of my favorite ways to relax. To set the mood, we have The Office playing on the TV in the background. We've watched it a million times and don't have to actually watch the TV to get all the jokes lol so it's perfect for puzzling. My puzzle strategy is to first separate out all the edges and then look for the 4 corners and then build the edge. Then I sort the puzzle pieces by color and then start putting it together!

If you could collaborate with any artist, dead or alive, who would it be?!

This is nearly impossible for me to answer bc I have so many!! and I can't think of a single one when asked lol. 

Who's your dream guest for a dinner & puzzle party?

Melissa McCarthy. She would be a blast!  

Where can people find you?
