Conversation with Carissa Tanton - Illustrator
from On the Irregular with Java Bere
This week I’m chatting to Carissa Tanton, an illustrator from North Wales currently living off grid in Central Portugal. Carissa began with ambitions to be a doctor, then a psychologist and then after a life changing time living in Paris, became an illustrator despite having been labeled ‘terrible at art’ at school. Her linear monochrome work is minimalist and precise, often featuring flowers, the sea and pop stars drinking tea. Please join me in our conversation where we touch upon working in wholefood shops, mindfulness and the con that is the British housing market. And of course, so much more.
