We first fell in love with Kelsey Garrity Riley's work when Marcie found her Lady Mary (of Downton Abbey fame) portrait. Kelsey's delicate lines and sophisticated color sensibility give her characters real personality and life. This piece makes me long for a beach trip-
All illustrations by Kelsey Garrity Riley
Kelsey grew up in Germany and Belgium before moving to the US to attend Savannah College of Art and Design. This work, titled German Breakfast, illustrates a bit of her European upbringing-
I love the combination of collage and illustration in Zodiac Dance Party-
To purchase prints of these illustrations, see her other work, or inquire about a custom piece, visit Kelsey's shop.
And if you are as taken with Kelsey's work as we are, today is your lucky day! Kelsey has been generous enough to create a free printable postcard for us-
