My educational background is very interesting because it combines both my love for fashion and art. Before I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts from Emily Carr University I studied fashion design and marketing in Toronto and Vancouver. After completing a summer fashion design internship in Los Angeles, I soon realized that I wanted to take a break from the fashion world and rekindle my love for art and painting. It was always a dream of mine to go to Emily Carr so I applied on a whim not expecting to get in since it is a very competitive art program. I started Laura Jane Atelier as a way to combine my passion for both art and fashion. Styling creative and colourful outfits situated in beautiful settings is a way for me to express my creativity to the world. I treat every photo like a panting and make sure that it is a work of art. I was thrilled when DENY Designs took notice in my creative and artistic sense of fashion and asked me to curate a collection of home decor inspired by my outfit. I wanted to create a collection of home decor and art pieces that suited my style and fashion taste. You can shop my curated collection right here.
