Thank you to Shirley Lasch for contributing this buoy titled "Musing of the Tide" to the 2026 Stonington Lobster Trap Tree! Shirley Lasch is an artist residing in New London, Connecticut, whose artistic style is shaped by the enduring influences of her childhood. Drawing, painting, daydreaming, and creativity came instinctively to her, and her work inspired joy in those around her. She spent hours paging through National Geographic magazines and gazing endlessly at copies of naturalist prints, designs, and paintings. She inherited a deep love of nature, plants, and animals, and enjoys quietly basking in and absorbing the beauty of the natural world around her.

Her paintings, which evolve from these experiences and observations, pay homage to the naturalist plates and photographic spreads that shaped her imagination as a young girl, while also capturing the sense of wonder inspired by nature documentaries. Musing of the Tide is a path to palette celebration of those natural objects which can often be found while walking along the northeast coastline. https://www.artworkarchive.com/profile/shirley-lasch/portfolio
