Lawrence de Maupeou possesses a distinctive perspective when it comes to formulating his art. As is often the case in contemporary times, beauty and technique do not take precedence. This is not to say that his works are not beautiful, quite the contrary. They exude a unique beauty, not in the traditional sense.
For Lawrence de Maupeou, that type of beauty is too relative. The subject of his art is often a man-made object or a defined situation: a highway, a boat, an airplane, a chair, or sometimes a natural phenomenon or animal, such as a cloud, a whale, or a dog. In all of these, he searches for the essential: the distinctive character. The works of Lawrence de Maupeou often exude a powerful, almost human-like essence.
