Always writing, I have filled hard drives with ones and zeros that occasionally coalesce into books. I live on a non-tropical island in the Pacific and love a good math joke, especially if there is pi involved. https://jeannettebedard.substack.com

I’ve been experimenting with doing exactly this.

For unknown reasons, I’m up at 5am. Might as well write.

Hi! I'm Lur Noise and I do illustration, concept art and comics.

I love drawing sci-fi, fantasy, tech, architecture, critters and plants. I'm available for both commissions and longer work!

#PortfolioDay

Poster style color illustration of An Antidote for Strychnine, a song by The Mountain Goats. It's composed of several panels displaying different images based on the song: lab rats, chemicals, fish bones... Green and blue tones predominate, but the band's name and the song title are written in yellow.

Color illustration of a gas filled armored being. The armor is translucent in parts on the limbs and their spherical head, where said gas can be seen.

Color illustration of some red slipper lobsters resting atop of a tiled, half flooded floor. The tiles are blue and yellow, with fleur-de-lis flowers drawn on them.

Reworked the isopod terrarium—they seem happy with having more moss to munch on.

If she moves in, I suspect we’ll just go out and get cat food
