What people have to say about working with Laura.

Russell Newman, Author of Rocket Science for Kids.

As a first-time author, Laura's deep experience has been invaluable. I am thrilled about the dozens of beautiful illustrations Laura has created for me for my picture book. I appreciate her patience with me as we edited and polished each page of my book, till I felt like it was just right. Her artistic eye has been excellent, and I couldn't have created my book without her help! I am so thankful she said yes to working with me and for every single part along the way. She has taught me so much. I look forward to making my sequel books with Laura!

Joel Gokool, Author of Michael is Stronger than his Thoughts.

Laura is great!!! Laura’s visuals where exactly what I was looking for. She is professional and went above and beyond to help a new author succeed.

Kate Studholme, Book cover commisson.

It was such a pleasure to work with Laura! Laura designed my book cover. The end product was excellent. Laura was able to retain the vibrancy of the original colour drawings (as we transferred from RGB to CMYK) which is technically difficult. She also framed the image with a font that matched the style and she gave the font a colour that complimented the image. Laura was very responsive and timely in all her communications. Laura has very sound judgment. The book cover that Laura designed was beautiful.

David Goodin, 3x Science Fiction map illustration commissons.

Laura was an absolute pleasure to work with. She helped me create a gorgeously beautiful drawing of my fictional universe which looks fantastic in color and black and white. She made sure I was completely satisfied and was patient with all of my changes. The work was completed early and I’m very pleased with the outcome. I look forward to our next collaboration.

Laura is an incredibly inventive and intuitive designer, always professional and a pleasure to work with. Her own artwork demonstrates a relaxed and unique style and I would strongly recommend her in either capacity.
