About La Ru

La Ru (Lauren Rudeck) is the Seattle based artist behind Robot vs Sloth. She enjoys drawing cute animals and robots doing typically human things like going camping, exploring the moon, and going for hikes on Mt. Rainier. La Ru owns a brick and mortar store called Robot vs Sloth in the Pike Place Market, where she showcases her artwork as well as a curated selection of local (and some non-local) talented artists. A percentage of some items are donated to Jaguar Rescue Center (an animal rescue center in Costa Rica, where La Ru fell in love with sloths), Special Bunny (rabbit rescue in Carnation, WA). and Lambert House (an LGBTQIA+ non-profit in Seattle, WA).Read their story
