About Me

Hello, my name is Ellie Kinmonth.

Ellie to everyone, Eleanor to the government and forgetful teachers.

I am never seen without either caffeine, all 9 of my rings or a wolf cut.

I’m a London-based illustrator who makes work about my life and experiences as a half-Asian, third-culture-kid. I try to make my outcomes light-hearted and fun while showing a connection to the subjects that feel nostalgic and inviting for my audience.

I LOVE drawing cool little characters but also like staring at people in public… to draw them of course.

I usually keep things black and white but recently, drawing with black ink on white paper feels daunting and serious so I have switched to blue ink.

I’ve worked with print making, mode making and digital art so yeah, I’m no one-trick pony!
