Yvette Neumann – Northwest abstract artist

“Lori is someone who has really put time and effort into honing her artistic skills. I think her style and compositions are interesting and with Lori having taught art in schools for several decades, her playful sensibility easily captures the imagination and attention of people.”


Lynne Hamilton - Northwest artist

“I have watched Lori evolve into an amazing artist that spends hours/days creating each of her one of a kind paintings. She approaches each piece with her unique techniques, colorful pallet and creative eye, I just had to buy one of her paintings for myself. It is a beautiful addition to our home and brings a feeling of delight into our life.”


Paula Palmer- Retired Librarian and first collector of Lori’s art

“I have bought a few of Lori VanEtta’s paintings—both abstract and very different from each other in color and content. Lori’s style is very meticulous and each time I look at one, I notice a new and beautiful surprise. It is fascinating to me how the paintings have prompted varied interpretations from my friends. Her paintings are so full of energy and life.”
