“When you can’t visit the world, bring the world to you.” – Kelly Pousette
The intricately painted illustrations by Canadian artist/illustrator Kelly Pousette will captivate children and adults of all ages. Each scene is comprised of highly detailed cut paper elements that she has artfully arranged in a 3D field. These bring me back to my own childhood, creating dioramas for school. If only mine were as refined as hers!

I really enjoy seeing artists like Pousette who are able to create work that the viewer can get lost in. Her work invites quiet contemplation and fervent appreciation.
Her illustrations can be found in The Very, Very Far North, Little Things, Do Not Rake Your Garden in a Party Dress and If You Were Night, releasing in September.
