From Lima with Love

Born and raised in Lima, Peru Laura Thurbon is the Granddaughter of an Admiral in the Peruvian Navy. This afforded her many opportunities to be exposed to diverse cultures, countries, ethnicities and all strata of society. This foundation and diverse upbringing, combined with her classical education in a wide variety of the Arts, opened up doors to not only become a well-rounded artist herself, but to find herself acting as the envoy to dignitaries visiting Peru. Privileged to host such famous artists as the Israeli artist Dorrit Yacoby & Japanese artist Nobuhiko Utsumi as well as ambassadors from several countries. These experiences drove her to expand her boundaries and ultimately led her to a life in the US. Here, as an independent business owner, Laura built a business as a unique artist creating small & large murals for businesses and private homes, custom tile art, commissioned canvases, etc. This experience as a business owner, taught her the critical importance of effective marketing. Thus she took it upon herself to learn everything she could about marketing. All things from graphic design, social media, website development, to trade show coordination. She absorbed this art form in the same manner she had the classics as a child. Recently Laura joined a fast growing IT managed services firm in the information technology arena and is helping put an entirely new spin on, what is traditionally viewed as, the world of propeller heads. But work isn’t everything right?, in her spare time, Laura Thurbon continues to keep her artistic talents alive in such ways as painting custom murals, pet portraits, and as a professional photographer. Also as a modest philanthropist, her most recent extracurricular project has been a large scale, custom, mural for San Vincent De Paul honoring the Champions for the homeless.
