Hey there, friend!
I'm Laurie Anne
Artist. Entrepreneur. Educator.
When I’m not out exploring new places with my husband and pup, you can find me in my studio painting the landscapes I found on our adventures. But I also love sharing what I’ve learned to help other artists grow, leading 100,000+ students in painting lessons online and teaching YOU everything I know about the art-to-print process.
Trying to figure out how to make quality art prints on your own is hard - there's a lot of fluff out there that leads to more confusion (I know because I learned the hard way). I made Art to Print completely from trial and error, so I know all the questions you have! I created Art to Print to make your life easier. The information in this course completely changed my business (and my life!) and the results speak for themselves: I've seen it change hundreds of artists' lives, too, from beginner to advanced! Meet them here!

“Art to Print has been such an invaluable resource. I tried teaching myself at first, but my process was inefficient, and I ended up wasting so much time & material trying to make it work. So I decided to invest in Art to Print, and it was a game-changer! Every step is laid out, it’s continually updated, and Laurie Anne is always quick to answer questions. I bought the course 3 years ago, and still reference it when I’m questioning a step in the process.”
Rebecca Sobbi
“Art to Print teaches you everything you need to know about making art prints in the simplest, most beautiful way. I would have considered myself pretty tech adverse before taking this course, but Laurie Anne walks you through every single step to make the most beautiful art prints. It’s something I reference back to often and I love that it’s updated as Laurie Anne adapts her techniques."
Jennifer Bezaire
“Art To Print was SO helpful! Before purchasing and going through the course, I took my originals to a local fine art printer for scanning and printing. It was fine but the process was so slow (and expensive) and I wasn’t able to do any editing before the printing- it was all in the printer’s hands so I felt very limited in the control I had over the final print. I still outsource the actual printing portion because that’s not an area I want to spend my time on but I finally feel like I have control over the end result on my prints! The videos were super helpful especially for someone who hadn’t used Photoshop in forever and had never used Lightroom. I still go back and rewatch certain videos when I need a refresher!"
"This is essential knowledge for any artist!" - K Larabee
Let me break it down for you...
