Hi #portfolioday!

I'm Ellis, a printmaker and illustrator (mostly linocut and risograph) based in the Midwest! I'm interested in cryptids, medieval art, flora and fauna, and weird little guys in general. Hoping to work on some more posters, illustrations, and print commissions this year!

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
