My name is Lauren Kaltenmark and I am an illustrator and designer in my final year at the Savannah College of Art and Design. My work combine playful narratives with vibrant energy that aims to connect people and bring life to stories through art.

Sixteen years on the golf course taught me focus, discipline, and the art of balancing precision with creativity—skills I now use to shape my approach to illustration. I specialize in crafting illustrations that inspire connection, whether for branding, publications, or personal projects.

Growing up in the Midwest, I was a curious, imaginative kid who loved storytelling and daydreaming. Today, I find joy in translating that same wonder into visuals that spark emotion and inspire meaningful connections.

When I am not in the studio or on the golf course, you’ll find me enjoying sunrises at the beach, discovering new podcasts, exploring Savannah’s food scene, and cooking meals to share with friends. Whether I am illustrating, golfing, or soaking up inspiration outdoors, I aim to bring a little more light and creativity to the world through my art.
