Lauren Jeanne Gotvald

Hello! My name is Lauren and I am an artist born and raised in Minnesota.

I have been a creative since I learned how to walk. In college I began to hone my technical and professional skills. I graduated with a bachelor of arts in graphic design with an emphasis on studio art from the University of Minnesota Duluth. I am proficient in digital illustration and like to dabble in floristry and painting as well. 

I believe art makes life worth living. Everything is designed and the human ability to create is endlessly inspiring. My art is most inspired by my love of nature and my many travels. I have spent the past couple of years living in national parks and backpacking through foreign cities. I am currently based in Colorado. I am deeply passionate about sustainability and human rights. I hope to promote positive change through art and to inspire people to reconnect with nature.
