Hi, I’m Lauren!

I'm an illustrator, comic artist, and storyteller creating cozy fantasy worlds inspired by books, games, and gentle adventures.

My work is for readers who love getting lost in stories, artists who feel deeply, and anyone who believes bravery doesn’t have to be loud.

Here, you’ll find illustrated worlds filled with quiet courage, soft-hearted characters, and Side Quests that matter.
