"At the age of six, I saw the painting "Hay Wain" by John Constable and was mesmerized. I recall sitting for hours and staring at the painting while tears rolled down my face. I thought, "This is so beautiful." It was in that instant that I knew I wanted to be an artist"

We interview Lupe for The Art of Sherlock Holmes project and she talks about her influences and inspirations: 

The Story

She currently lives in the Pacific North Wet and has been writing for MX since You Buy Bones was published in 2015.
