Dutch-based artist Cil Laurens creates detailed works on wood

with beautiful lines by working with millimeter thin ink pens.

This way she fills her illustrations with graphic patterns.

In her work, Cil Laurens portrays mysterious women, mainly with

their eyes closed or covered. She playes with the characteristic

of people to feel and experience and listen in a pure way to their

inner self.

„Her work is a heady mix of feminine, dark, intriguing and

alluring. While her style is precise and to the point, illustrator

Cil Laurens loves duality; she ever embraces the two sides

to every story. She worked on an art commission for “H&M’s

Conscious Line”, she studied Graphic Design at the School for

Fine Arts in Kampen and a little later photography at the Roy-
al Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague. Both have led her to

create whimsical yet clear representations of her elusive world.
