About Lauri Wedgworth

Born in 1956, fine artist Lauri Wedgworth grew up in a small farm town west of Phoenix, Arizona. Growing up with farmers and excessive heat, she developed creativity for entertainment and survival.

Lauri started drawing and painting at age 4. Her mother was an artist, creating new paintings at home for businesses in town. Her grandmother was an artist who had her work featured in newspapers in her early years. Lauri learned the basics of drawing and painting with watercolors from her grandmother.

From an early age it was evident that Lauri had artistic talents. At the age of 10, she won an art competition for creating a famous scene from the Disney movie “The Sword in the Stone”. This drawing was exhibited at the local movie theater.
