Laura Schiff Bean

Laura Schiff Bean (born in New York state), is a contemporary visual artist. Prior to becoming a career artist, she earned a degree in psychology from George Washington University and then worked in print advertising in Boston, Massachusetts.[1] Laura Schiff Bean went on to get her Masters in Fine Arts (MFA) from School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts.[2] Her inspiration is derived from artists such as Lucien Freud, Jenny Saville, and Jim Dine.[1]

Bean is known "for her dress 'portraits' painted with many layers of thick dripping paint."[3] She tries to imbue the paintings with a sense of the wearer.[4]
