Laura Wilder
Laura has been a Roycroft Renaissance Artisan specializing in block printing for thirty years. The prints are created by doing a separate hand-carving for each color, and printing the inked carvings on a hand-cranked letterpress. This method is a laborious adventure, which Laura shares in her e-newsletter at laura@laurawilder.com. Occasionally she tires of the rigors of printmaking and switches to painting—in oils or gouache.

The art celebrates what Laura’s distant cousin Laura Ingalls Wilder called “the sweet, simple things of life,” especially the beauty of the four seasons, sunlight through trees, and our precious pollinators with their favorite native plants.
Laura has won many awards and prestigious commissions over the years. Her work can be seen at art festivals, in galleries and shops nationwide, and at laurawilder.com. A complete resume is available on the website.
