The intricate drawings of London-based artist, Laura Jordan, a.k.a. Delicate Mayhem present a world of wonderment. They are artworks you can sit and stare at for hours, personifying the notion of a picture painting a thousand words. A lot of the time, they expose an intimate snapshot of a city and its people; whether it be a social commentary on London, Manchester, New York and so on. They are artworks of familiar places, familiar people, the familiar clockwork that drives our everyday enveloped with a hint of mayhem, but of course, delicately bound.
Here, Laura gives us a lowdown on her artworks, life as an artist, and personal insights into her world.
Name: Laura Jordan
Occupation: Illustrator & Art Director of Delicate Mayhem
1. Describe your style of drawing: Free line architectural with a touch of magic.
2. When did you first get into art? I learnt to express my creativity when I was at school.
3. Do you ever get artist’s block? How do you get over it?
Not really, I’m constantly inspired by the world around me; I always have a pile up of ideas to execute. I do though sometimes get bored or frustrated when working on a piece that’s not quite coming together so I move on to something else or go out to my favourite places in London to reinspire myself.
