About

Lake Albrecht's (LA) work is inspired by the 19th-century Impressionism movement and other geniuses of modernity. In the late 80s and early 90s, LA was represented by Carson-Shapiro Art Gallery and McGrath & Brawn Art Consulting Firm in Denver, who installed several of her paintings at Marriot Hotels in San Francisco, CA and Tokyo, Japan. LA taught art at the university level and studied under a national and international watercolorist both in the US and overseas. After moving to Hawaii in 1993, LA won the ‘Nani Hana No'eau’ and ‘Windsor Newton’ awards along with acceptances into the Japanese Chamber of Commerce Art Exhibitions. LA switched gears to academia for a period while raising a family but now has returned to the art world as of 2019. In 2020, LA relocated to Taos, NM and currently exhibits her paintings at TAC Gallery. LA’s love of the modern French masters and the southwest landscape has inspired the use of movement, pattern, and textures in her work.
