  1. So many amazing illustrations! I wish I could comment on them all, but you'd be here 'til morning reading everything if I did.

    The ones with the owls are gorgeous - I really like the way you combine people with animals. It's fascinating, actually. It makes me think about what the connection is between the character and the animal and that just draws me deeper into your art. I love that.

    If I had to pick a favourite, mine would be the very first one. There's so much going on in that drawing - it appeals to my imagination.

  7. this is such an incredible collection, lauren. though it's not fair, if i had to choose a favorite it would be: "dance 'til you drop". the use of red obviously makes it stand out, but the concept itself is creepy and a good representation of halloween as a whole. it also reminds me of the yeah yeah yeah's track "heads will roll". your impeccable attention to detail and wise coloring make the thematic elements of your pieces really shine through. and that goes for all your work. i'm quite taken by your style and the ease of which you convey these tiny little universes which so much emotion and character. for me, what sets you apart from others who may have similar styles is your ability to tell a story within your pieces without sacrificing the structure or playfulness that make them so special. your illustrations feel like a breath of fresh air, each and every one of them.

  21. Oh my these are incredible! Your are an amazing artist. And you draw all these just from your own head/imagination? As an art stundent and enthusiast myself, I find it extremely hard to get my own ideas down on paper, I envy how you do it so well!
