undun is a fan artist and fan writer who has been active in Harry Potter and Sherlock fandoms.

undun's 2009 bio in the Harry Potter zine Chocolate and Asphodel, Volume 2, states:

undun is fan artist with inconsistent quantity output, and a fan writer of even more inconsistent quantity output. undun envies those people that can create an abundance of quality art and fiction in ridiculously short time frames. undun has a penchant for Lupin and Snape but has been known to stray into Snarry now and again. Well, Snape is in both, yeah?

Notable Fanart

Well, I've always loved line drawings, graphite, black-and-white, and Undun's pencilwork has an immediacy to it, a grittiness and intimacy, that suck me in. Her portraits stay true to the characters - I love her homely, intense Snape, her youthful Harry. There's a quality to her work that's hard to pinpoint, a quality that makes the viewer more of a voyeur, as if catching the characters in the act. The figures aren't, so to speak, posing for the world. They're totally absorbed in the moment, in each other, not pretty or stylized or embodying their role in a story, even when the drawing (like this one) is meant to illustrate a specific fic. These are private moments, rumpled, sweaty, rough, crossing the emotional line, the men involved oblivious to the onlooker and definitely not playing to an audience.[3]
