Lauren Harding – Artist Statement

 

With the fine precision of pen and the soft depth of graphite, Lauren Harding draws the quiet soul of the animal kingdom into being. Cats—majestic or mischievous, wild or domestic—are her constant muses, their gaze and movement revealing entire worlds of feeling. Her work lingers in the space where animal and human lives entwine: the shared glances, the silent understandings, the unspoken histories. Each line is both observation and devotion, an invitation to see not just the creature, but the bond that makes us kin.
