Hi! I'm Laura. I draw, write and generally make weird things, sometimes about art history. Like this thing 👇
Picture this: it's 1193 CE. The third season of Holier Than Thou, a scripted reality show following the crusades, has just aired to great success. Despite not recapturing Jerusalem, King Richard the Lionheart of England has transformed the fledgling series into a pop culture phenomenon and has become Western Europe's first celebrity king. How did we get here?

Holier Than Thou
Hello friends,
It's been a journey getting here, but the time has finally come to release the next issue of UN: Utter Nonsense magazine and I hope you're going to love it. This issue is a little different than my last artist's magazine, (btw that's what I'm calling them because they're more like artist's books in magazine format) in that I created a mock People lifestyle magazine about Richard the Lionheart and the Third Crusade. It took me so long to research, draw, write, and layout the whole thing that I can't even remember why I got interested in the crusades in the first place.
