Carson Ellis is an amazing illustrator I have always admired, the way she uses watercolours, her colours and her naive characters are what I like the most about her work. Watercolour is a difficult medium to work with and control, her intricate detail and use of spacing shows just how great her abilities are in this medium. Carson Ellis has illustrated multiple books also an occasional maker of editorial illustration, having worked for The New York Times, Poetry Magazine, and The New Yorker, among others, and an even more occasional fine artist represented by Nationale in Portland.
