My name is Lauren Miller, and I am an Illustrator who’s working out of Michigan. I’ve obtained my Bachelor's degree at College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan with a major in Illustration and a minor in Game Design. I have done various styles of Digital Illustration and Graphic Design for commissions and internships throughout the start of my creative career. This includes both items in the 2D and 3D fields.
 

I served as a Professional Graphic Artist for both DrinkBranders and SwagBranders, where I worked both the front and back end of the company through various creative positions doing graphic design, photo editing, typography, vectorized illustration, web layouts and client consultation. As for my illustrative work, I've have done commissions and freelance jobs for many clients including but not limited to: CASCO USA, RaeComics and the Detroit Pistons. The work I’ve done varies from environments, assets, characters, clothing designs, and typography. 
 

My work brings stories to life in an illustrative and detailed manner. The intent behind my projects is to work from earthly reference and adapt it into an unearthly interpretation of fantastical worlds that can be seen in forms of entertainment such as video games, books and film. I also love producing smaller illustrations that can be turned into stationary products such as stickers, bookmarks, and keychains.
 

From my work you can expect to see worlds I have created from references and research that I often gather from real locations of abandonment and decay. Additional references I sometimes create through 3D modeling. Through stages of thumbnails, color studies, and reideation, I develop work that can lead the viewer to a place of fantasy or magic that can’t be see in our present world. This often comes with the idea that my concept work can be build upon in later stages of the development process and used for larger endeavors.
