Elly Walton is an English editorial illustrator based in Derby, which is in the UK.
She is an established illustrator, who has had over 10 years of experience, and prior to her illustration role, she was an art director for several advertising agencies.

Her work contains a lot of traditional medium use, and she also uses digital software in her work.

Her contact information can be seen on the illustration above, which is featured at the link provided via the caption.

I really like her work, it has a heavily cartoon appearance to it, which is a style that I like.
Some of her work features the usage of 'flat' design styles as well, it is worth noting.
This design style is common in today's fashion, so she has adapted her self to move with fashion.
