"Lau is an illustration master who has dedicated his life wholeheartedly to his craft. It's exceptionally rare to encounter someone so proactive, consistently delivering top-notch quality time and time again without pause. His commitment to excellence shines through in both his illustrations and stories, and we take pride in collaborating with him." - Harald, CEO at Tellerup
I have worked with a variety of authors, illustrators, bookstores, and printers through the last 20 years with my indie publishing company, Sally the Cat Publishing. I was introduced to Lau by one of my authors who was head-over-heels over his artistic interpretation of her characters. Lau and I soon began to work together, and I quickly noticed several of his qualities; professional rapport, quick turnaround, attention to the specific request of the author and in my case, creating art in the transferable requirements I needed to go to press. When it came time for me to create my own book, I did not hesitate to turn to Lau. Now, I can say that I not only have worked with him from a publisher's standpoint, but from an author's as well. I am confident that the sky has no limit for Lau as he is a good person who works with love on all his projects.

Lau Frank is an exceptional illustrator! His ability to bring characters to life and craft storytelling illustrations is beyond what I’ve expected. With minimal guidance, he can translate your manuscript ideas into stunning visuals. Lau is independent and easygoing. His talent improves every book he touches, plus he knows how to captivate readers! I am a big fan.

"Lau has been such a great man to work with! He has real talent. My husband that is a graphic designer is very impressed. I gave Lau my manuscript for a children's book and it didn't take long for him to come up with amazing ideas.
Lau's sketches were great and I was very happy with them. Then he sent me the colored, finished illustrations and I was Soo elated with them! I have giggled and smiled with excitement when I look at the illustrations. Even after seeing them multiple times. Lau's work will definitely be the highlight and seller of my book.
Lau was very easy to work with and also quick to respond and make changes I requested. This project turned into a great partnership with Lau. I will definitely work with him again. Pricing for his services is very reasonable and comparable to his work. Thank you so much, Lau, for breathing life into my words!" - Marcie Greenmun
"Lau has been an absolute pleasure to work with. This is my first book, so I really didn't have a clue as to what I was doing and he walked me through the process from start to finish! My story was written, but I still needed the artwork to bring my story to life. He was able to make that happen, from what I can tell, with little to no effort. I am so amazed at how quickly he took my story and created the characters and the environment the way I envisioned it should be. I look forward to working with him again on my future projects and highly recommend him to anyone wanting to bring their book project to the next level! He is a true professional through and through and now someone I consider a good friend. Thank you, Lau, for making this an amazing experience for me. You truly are one of a kind!" - Daniel Crossgrove

"If you are lucky enough to work with Lau you will find his work brings your story to a whole new dimension. Initially very impressed with Lau's ability to bring out expressions in his character designs, we also quickly realised he was easily able to develop hugely appealling characters, and work with us to create exciting imagery for children as they travel through a story. Lau is very professional, and will note small details which make your experience even more enjoyable. He is most certainly a rising talent, and he made our first experience in developing a book a very enjoyable and rewarding. He also made us smile every time we had a message from him, the logo was exactly what we were looking for and he understood the kind of image we wanted to convey - fun and friendly. Thank you for all your professionalism and your incredible imagination Lau, we are looking forward to working with you on many more projects." - Caroline Williams
