Collection: Line & Lore

Art made from the collaboration of storytellers, a new limited edition each month. 


A black and white, limited-edition art print signed and numbered, packed with a full page short story from the highlighted writer. The full story gets shipped out from my studio as soon as possible. 


Once upon a time, I decided I wanted my pen and ink artworks to have deeper meanings than the ones I was giving them and so I reached out to my writer friends for some help. What I found was an easy, refreshing collaboration between storytellers. I would draw something and they would write how they were inspired by it. They would write something, and I would illustrate how I recognized it. This became full short stories built from an art print and its connected written page that gets offered once a month, sent to a small number of people who would also love to explore their own minds. The meaning deepens as more minds get inspired.

I'm Lauren. I'm a fine artist, published children's book illustrator, and I crave connection and meaning in my everyday life. I wanted to make something that keeps me social and immediately draws a line between people, connecting them. I always wear my grandmother's gold watch on my wrist. One time, when I was drawing a portrait, I held back tears because I really felt like I was magic, and I’m chasing that feeling again. 


What people think of Line & Lore:

It is a quiet moment with an art piece and story that can be talked about when seen. -Vincent A.


If neither the first print or the story inspires you, I'll refund you and you keep it. No questions asked, no hard feelings.
