Lauren Duncan marvels at the big and bold circles God has made in her life. She was born and continues to reside in Auburn, Alabama, the first baby and grandbaby on all sides of the family. She has loved creating from an early age—her parents signed her up for art classes and bought her supplies to keep her busy.

Lauren got her undergraduate degree from Auburn University and her master's in art education from the University of Alabama at Birmingham. She taught art in Birmingham and later at an international Christian school in Ghana, West Africa. She returned to Auburn for what she thought would be a brief stay but met her husband and ended up making Auburn home again.

Currently, Lauren is an adjunct professor of art at Auburn University, teaches art to small groups, helps run her family store, and spends time in her studio. She prayerfully follows the Lord's nudges to paint, write, and love on sweet foster babies. It is her hope and prayer that her ramblings and doodles would help others along on their journey and inspire hope in the hearts they encounter.
