Welcome to my world of color and light

I’m Laura Gaffke — an artist, nature lover, and seeker of beauty in the everyday. Living along the shoreline in Connecticut, I’m inspired by the ocean, shifting light, and the quiet rhythm of the seasons.

Here, I share my paintings — layered, vibrant, and created to invite pause, reflection, and joy — alongside the little moments that make life feel meaningful.

I’m so glad you’re here!
