Lauren Acton

Having a background in Fashion Design helped facilitate my sense of color and design. After 2 years in Paris and 8 years in NYC, I became a fashion illustrator working on many print collections and presentation boards for clients. This fostered my passion of prints and painting. Today, I continue my love for both by teaching fashion and painting at various art centers and privately. I have exhibited in national juried exhibitions for over 15 years, have had art representation and presently exhibit in several galleries. My work is in Monaco and private US collections.
