Hey #portfolioday!
I'm Laura, a fantasy abstract fine artist that sometimes does illustrations! Huge fan of stories, whether they're a single line or pages upon pages. I work in watercolor, graphite powder, and gouache
My style vibes with what I need it to do

landscape of branches and roots growing around a small puddle of water. a blue raven stands above it with a feather in his beak, peering down into the water. three small abstract landscape paintings. Green seaweed looking one, a green stone formation that can be a city or forest, and a green and yellow natural formation that can be a leaf breaking apart Two book cover paintings. a blue one with a man and a sword, looking tired and worn, and a burnt hand besides him. the background is abstract shapes hidden by misty swirls. The second image is of a city. There is a crowd of people that are just forms, and one man standing out in a red trenchcoat and white eyes staring at the viewer. dark blue landscape of two woods meeting for a conversation. It can also possibly be a single tree split down the middle.

More fun cicada studies. This one with some more vibrant colors.
A small painting of a dark cicada with orange coloration against a blue background. The pattern on the back of the cicada forms a skull.

Eyes of Kings.

Artwork for the final book in Chloe Gong's "Flesh and False Gods" trilogy
Princess Calla wearing a tank top, cargo pants, combat boots and a ton of leather holsters/pouches, determinedly holding her sword in front of her as she stands in the debris of a knocked down section of brick wall, a slum like city looming up and glowing behind her against the night sky.

Tired of lying awake at 3 am raging about how shit everything is? Like to have something to read instead?

How about a bundle of great fiction about authoritarian regimes and heroes who stick knives in evil systems?

Another illustration based on an idea I had for a story. Just like the last one, this one is set in Victorian times. It's about an English aristocrat who becomes infected with an extraterrestrial parasite, which begins to gradually unravel reality around him.

sketch-like digital painting made in heavypaint with lasso brush. it depicts the korok forest in mostly brown and yellow colours, highly inspired by how it looks in tloz botw. there are some korok shadows, the glowing pea plants pods decorations, glowing fireflies and a lot of greenery. there’s the master sword on its pedestal in the middle of the picture, also glowing, and link himself standing close to it, like he didn’t expect to stumble upon it.

Corvid with attitude
#birdart #sciart #b&w
Graphite, pan pastel and ink drawing of a corvid in profile. The image is in black and white, and I have used pan pastels and ink splashes to create some texture on the bird. The corvid looks quite nonchalant
