ARTIST STATMENT
​
My name is Courtney Larsen and I am a multi-disciplinary artist focused on large scale murals and painted works on canvas. I specialize in impactful, photo-worthy mural artwork for public and commercial properties, including hotels, corporate offices, and restaurants. I love to use warm, poppy colors in my artwork, and a mix of flat, graphic shapes with 3D elements to create a finished painting that is modern and inviting. I take inspiration from my surroundings, and my desert home, with all its color, is endlessly interesting to me.
While I love the desert, I’m inspired by nature in all its forms, finding beauty in everything from the arid, sparse desert landscapes, to lush, vibrant green environments. Flowers, wildlife, plants, and landscapes are all fascinating to me, and find their way into every piece of my work. Nothing makes me happier than sharing that artwork in a public space and seeing people interact with what I’ve created.
