Holiday Commissions
I’m definitely biased, but giving art as a gift is one of the most badass gifts of all.
A recent commission.
“Maddie” Digital Portrait, 2020, Lauren Elyse S.
LA > Chi Town > Philly & Back Again
Recently found myself on a train rolling back and forth across the country, so of course I had to document it the best way I know how.
I can’t even begin to describe how difficult it is to sketch while being steadily jostled on a train for hours on end.

Melt
"Melt" digital painting, 2018.
Here's a piece inspired by Mughal carpet designs, the scent of flowers on a warm wind, and one of my favorite colors - persimmon.
The Stormy Sea at Night
"Turner-esque Nocturne" Digital Painting by Lauren Elyse S. 2018.
I don't remember the first time I saw Turner's abstract atmospheric paintings, but I do remember how they made me feel. It was like a lightening bolt - they woke me up. The energy in them is insane. I particularly love Fishermen at Sea and, related in style, Whistler’s Nocturne Black and Gold: The Falling Rocket. My worship of a stormy sea rolls deep, and so here is a little digital painting in the vein of Turner with a mind towards Whistler.
