About
Karis Harrington is a freelance artist and visual storyteller living aboard an old boat which serves as both her home and studio.
With a penchant for folkloric curiosities, fantasy and nature, these fascinations creep into her work across many mediums from ink illustration to paintings to Crankie theatre.

Favourite Artist? Harry Clarke; an Irish storyteller and artist, he created a unique space for Pagan and Celtic symbolism to intertwine with Art Nouveau. My love for monochrome linework, detail, and the fantastic, led me to his illustration work many moons ago as a student. His images are hypnotic and brought new life to the world of both modern and ancient folklore, which is a huge interest of mine to explore with my art.
Favourite Artist Quote? ‘I’m an illustrator. I have to accept my role.’
