# About me

My name is Lauren Versino.
I'm a professional Illustrator and Graphic designer.

I've been on DeviantART since 2004 and it was one of the main places I learned to draw. I think the community is amazing.

I work primarily in traditional media with marker.
I work for a design firm that works with major brands and their packaging of their garments out in Los Angeles.
Some of my original artwork and enamel pins are for sale at New Profanity on Melrose Ave. in West Hollywood.

and it all started here...on DeviantART.

I do take commissions. Message me ;*

For more sketches and to see more of my process head over to Instagram and follow me

I wanted to take screen printing so badly, but it was full so I'm in etching again! It's nice. I actually feel like I know what I'm doing this time! I can't wait for print exchanges again! If you want, we should exchange a screen print and an etching at the end of the semester! I love your stuff!

Darkness76 In reply to Henri-Pants [2013-01-29 18:42:47 +0000 UTC]

aw thanks!
yeah we can totally do that, making editions for screen printing isn't as complicated as etching [as far as i understand it so far]and i really like your stuff too!
but yeah just add in an extra print for me and i'll do the same [i assume in my class we're doing an exchange again]

hahah it must be nice knowing what you're doing. i go to class every evening have no idea what is gonna happen. but i really like it

I haven't been on DA in longer than I'd like to admit, but can I just say looking through the new deviations, I have really missed your work. It's just so...gutsy? I dunno. It inspires me to keep being creative!

Darkness76 In reply to TheAmandaLake [2011-05-26 13:16:18 +0000 UTC]

im working my butt off! and going to summer school...so i dont have to take an extra semester.....
at the moment have a little room mate problems [boyfriend over way to much] but im dealing with it today hopefully.

my only plans for my break is work and school then go home for the last half and do nothing!

my boy is good :] he got a job making/fixing guitar pick ups, which is something he really enjoys

and NO i dont have my snake yet!!! he hasnt been born still!!!
MOM STOP BEING PREGNANT!
the anticipation is killing me!!!

what about all those answers to those questions?

TheAmandaLake In reply to Darkness76 [2011-05-27 00:30:09 +0000 UTC]

Haha, awesome! Sounds mostly fantabulous

I am currently on my summer break trying to get as many jobs and as many monies as I can get my hands on. I'm trying to start paying off all my huge school debts and shit

My plans for break involve...working haha. Trying to get my screen printing business on a roll with my boyfriend. Which is way harder than I thought haha. Just getting the work done is hard for some reason. It's like "Draw and do whatever you want!" and I'm all "Oh cool! Wait...what do i want again?"

So yeah, my boy is good too. He just graduated so he's on the job quest as well. Working pretty much the same jobs I am

But yeah, things are goin really nicely! About to start my senior year and I'm a bit nervous but, everything is working it's self out

Darkness76 In reply to TheAmandaLake [2011-05-29 01:36:35 +0000 UTC]

that's cool! all i have going for me is an artist's website....

and i dont consider myself an artist to put shit in galleries, but i guess ill try that as an extra curricular activity!

i feel so unexperianced in making art at school even though i've been doing it since i was a small child! it's so weird!
