An active artist, Lauroesch has exhibited her work in galleries and museums in the northeast and Midwest, and has had artwork reproduced in several arts and literary journals. She enjoys the integration of science and art, whether the chemistry integral to traditional printmaking and photography or the digital technology of contemporary arts, and her recent work related to human anatomy aptly reflects this combination, an example of which may be viewed on the University of Iowa’s Daily Palette web site archive.
