Tompkins County is the Perfect Backdrop for Laurel Guy's Artistic Vision

Ask Laurel what she loves about Ithaca and the question will probably prompt a vivid description of the changing seasons (and surprising weather!), the waterfalls, gorges, and rolling hills, with Cayuga Lake at its heart. She'll tell you all about the academic, intellectual atmosphere and thriving artistic community. The distinct architecture and history of the homes capture a character they find unique and charming. The rich diversity of the people and the beauty of the area are a perfect backdrop for them to pursue her many activities and interests including rowing, biking, cooking and gardening. It's a place that provides a blank canvas of possibilities just waiting to be discovered.

THROUGH THE EYES OF AN ARTIST

Laurel Guy believes strongly that your life IS your art, your most creative act. Their philosophy is you create your life just as the artist creates a painting, a composer writes a symphony, or the poet writes a poem. "My life has been colorful so far and I do my best to see, to really pay attention to the small moments that make up our days." said Laurel. "I love sitting in the backyard, and take in the view of the sky, the trees, our home.  I renovated a beautiful 100-year-old country church into my home, and I never tire of looking at the unique details, the lines of the building. If you think of your life as a work of art, our home is the frame that holds everything together, and at the center is our family. I know it is the same for my clients, and it is what inspires me to help them envision the possibilities for their own lives."

A PASSIONATE APPROACH TO COMMUNITY

For Laurel, the only thing better than living here is being able to give back to the stimulating community they are so passionate about. Laurel had a successful ten-year track record as Ithaca Festival Director, and as a visual artist, she remains involved in the local arts community and many other local organizations. Laurel says, "The greatest contribution you can make is your time. If you understand that you have more than your money to give, you can make a big difference."
