Hi, I’m Lauren M, and a big thank you for taking the time to view my portfolio.
I’m an artist from Toowoomba, Queensland and I’m a mother to two equally crazy and creative kids. I work part time as a support worker and love being a part of the disability community.
I work in both digital media and oil paint - such opposing mediums I know, but both serve a purpose to bring to life the artwork I create.
I am inspired by the modern Australian narrative, but it’s not usually the flora and fauna, as beautiful as it is. I am more interested in subjects that invoke a memory or emotion from my childhood.
I paint and create what captures my attention - these subjects are typically overlooked, childlike objects that invoke a memory or emotion. These subjects are expressed in the pop art genre, where I can inject humour and a bright colour pallette, although lately I am finding myself dabbling in the contemporary still
life genre.
