I was invited to one of Laura’s exhibitions by a mutual friend last spring. I went because I was intrigued by Laura’s passion for fusing her beautiful crafts work with the study of neuroscience. When I got there I fell in love with the “Mindful Meditator” and knew I had to buy this piece for myself. The beautiful medley of golden colors and textures have helped to jumpstart my longtime – but recently lagging -- commitment to self-care through the two intertwined practices of mindfulness and meditation. And the cerebral representation gently reminds me of the capacity of the human brain to focus our intentions and change our behaviors through these two powerful practices. Thank you, Laura, for helping me reclaim my path to wellbeing! ~Margie from Massachusetts |

Commissioned a special piece from the very talented Laura Bundesen to celebrate my daughter’s successful right hemispherectomy
The result so exceeded my expectations - Laura captured the vibrancy and plasticity of my daughter’s amazing brain - every time I see it I am reminded of the gifted neurosurgeons who gave her brain the gift of a reboot- without seizures!
Will be working with Laura on another commission to reflect all the strange and wonderful things that are swirling around in my own brain!

"Big announcement! Today one of the best gifts I ever bought myself arrived. The Mindful Alchemist 1 by the incredibly talented Laura Bundesen is a celebration of my transition off the bench and into a position of training and building programming for budding neuroscientists and of my recent promotion to include leading efforts of diversity and inclusion within the neurosciences and generally a celebration of my love for all things brainy and creative. Thank you so much Laura."
