Hello, I'm Laura
a digital crafter based on Madrid (Spain)
I’m a digital artist, visual/graphic designer, art director, passionate photographer, pop culture consumer, professional fan, ice-cream enthusiast, clumsy handler of breakable stuff, skillful cook, animal lover and a Force believer.
I also believe in the power of stories; that’s why I create film posters and surreal digital paintings that tell a story and show a truth. I strive to make them with that artisanship touch that inspires and transcends paper and the passage of time.
Currently, I carry out all kind of projects from graphic & visual design —corporate identity, web/mobile, brochures, posters…— to digital illustration —creating film posters, covers for books/magazines, and commissioned digital art.
Note: I don’t do spec work* (free pitching).
*Speculative work (or free pitching) is any job for which the client expects to see examples or a finished product before agreeing to pay a fee or compensation.
I’m always looking for new and interesting challenges, so contact me if you’d like to talk about how I can help you, collaborate or ask for information about any of my works…
Also, I love to say hello 🙂
Testimonials
words of mouth
Laura is an impressive artist. I have commissioned many projects to her and she always has interesting questions about the tone, the characters and the main concept. That’s why she always delivers fresh ideas, so the colours and the disposition of the elements finally nail the essence of the project. If you are lucky to watch her working, you realize that tools or software don´t matter because they are just an extension of her. She’s the best partner on the battlefield of a film.
Sencillamente perfecta, ésa fue mi sensación cuando recibí la portada del libro Neotelling. No sólo es que estuviera muy bien diseñado, es que había plasmado exactamente lo que yo necesitaba. Creo que la principal cualidad de Laura como diseñadora es que sabe detectar qué necesitas y lo hace con una entrega admirable, cuidando hasta el más mínimo detalle.
We’ve commissioned Laura to create key art for two separate films, and both times we’ve been blown away by the final artwork. She’s professional and easy to work with, and her artistic talent speaks for itself.
I highly recommend her.
When I discovered Laura, I was amazed at the freshness and vision of this artist from Madrid who is able to surprise you with her proposals and innate talent. She looks at the project, seeks its essence and deconstructs it, like a haute cuisine chef, to bring out the best of your film. I admit it –I’m a big consumer of American movies and I can not deny I grew up admiring magnificent directors like George Lucas or Steven Spielberg, and they relied on a great artist like Drew Struzan to create their posters. Some may say I am exaggerating, but Laura is extremely talented and I think –if film producers are able to see the potential of this artist– we shortly will come to see her works on the facades of the cinemas of the Gran Vía. Undoubtedly, whenever I can and if she wants to, Laura will be responsible to show the world my next project.
I’d seen Laura’s lovely work on a few sites and sought her out. She captured the complete aesthetic of the film, taking into account the titles and the cinematography. The end result is a poster that lives in the world of the film; foreboding, explosive and threatening. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and I can’t wait to do it again.
I´ve worked closed to Laura for one year. I can say she is good, fast and very enthusiastic with interactive concepts. She always has new interaction ideas and is leader not only in creativity concepts but also in technical knowledge of software. She is also well organised, responsible and collaborative.
Es una diseñadora con un gusto artístico fuera de lo común, perfeccionista y conocedora de las tendencias actuales y de otras épocas. Conoce profundamente el Photoshop, su herramienta básica de trabajo, con lo que es rápida y productiva, consiguiendo una relación calidad/tiempo muy alta en su trabajo. Es estructurada y metódica, con lo que es facil trabajar en equipo con ella porque lo prepara todo para que se pueda utilizar bien lo que ella produce en fases posteriores o por otros diseñadores. Como persona es sencilla y modesta, lo que ayuda también a trabajar con ella en equipo. Trabajaría con ella de nuevo porque su calidad de trabajo es inusual y como persona es una buena compañera.
Laura es responsable, trabajadora, inquieta, buena fotógrafa, creativa, generosa, valiente, amante de los gatos, geek, piscis, y, sobre todo, buena persona.
Trabajar con Laura ha sido un gran aliciente tanto desde el grado profesional como desde el humano. Excelente diseñadora, tremendamente creativa y con un alto grado de empatía, he sentido que mi trabajo a su lado mejoraba como consecuencia de la calidad del suyo.
