CR Laul’s practice is rooted in process, a way of recording a moment in time, a mood, a shifting emotional landscape. Each work functions as a kind of visual diary, shaped by lived experience, relationships, and reflection. While earlier paintings carried a certain intensity, recent series have grown more patient and meditative, drawing deeply from nature. Land, sea, sky, and horizon are distilled and reimagined through color and line, reduced to essential elements and then amplified. Geometry, balance, disorder, and color form a rich toolkit, while spontaneity and chance remain vital collaborators. Influenced by architecture and graphic design, his work balances structure with intuition. Largely self-educated, Laul has relied on dialogue with peers in the design world to sharpen his investigations. He lives and works in northern New Jersey.
