She worked with oils, watercolors and pastels. Greenwood also lectured on art history and taught fine art. BiographyGreenwood was born in 1897 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She studied at Temple University, La France Art Institute, and Moore College of Art and Design where she graduated in 1933. Her studies continued at the Barnes Foundation and with Earle Horter.[1] She was active in Philadelphia and exhibited her work in the city at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and in New York and Washington, D.C. Greenwood painted portraits, especially of young women, floral still lifes, and landscapes. She painted with oils on canvas and over her career her brush strokes became more free and expressive. She also worked in watercolor, and was elected a member of the Philadelphia Watercolour Club and was also a member of The Plastic Club. Greenwood was proficient in pastels. She made Impressionist and Regionalist works, but was a particularly adventurous Modernist.[1][2] Greenwood taught fine art and was a lecturer on American art history.[1] Greenwood died in Philadelphia on July 25, 1951 at the age of 54. She was buried in the Cedar Hill Cemetery on July 30.[3] There was an exhibition of her work held in 1987 at the Lagakos-Turak Gallery entitled "Laura M. Greenwood: American Paintings of the 1930s and 40s."[4] {{quote|Greenwood possessed old-fashioned painterly virtues and was not particularly interested in new approaches, although there are echoes of one of her teachers, modernist Earle Horter, in some of her work. Relaxed, loosely brushed and relying on a bright palette, her especially hearty and amiable tabletop still lifes and her infrequent but interesting landscapes represent a solid and very respectable achievement. Her portrait and figure subjects have a decorative, early-20th century charm, but threaded through this show are some paintings best described as competent but uninspired.|Victoria Donohoe, Inquirer Art Critic[5]}}References1. ^1 2 3 {{Cite web|url=http://www.askart.com/askart/g/laura_marie_greenwood|title=askART - Art prices, artist art auction records, art research tools|website=www.askart.com|access-date=2017-09-19}} 2. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.askart.com/AskART/artists/search/ArtistKeywords.aspx?searchtype=KEYWORDS&artist=103303 | title=Laura Marie Greenwood - Quick Facts | publisher=AskArt | accessdate=5 January 2014}} 3. ^{{citation | title=Philadelphia Cemetery records, North Cedar Hill Cemetery, |publisher=Historical Society of Pennsylvania | work=Historic Pennsylvania Church and Town Records; Reel: 894 }} 4. ^{{cite book|author1=Penelope Lagakos Turak|author2=Laura M.
