After completing her studies in graphic design, Elise Gravel found herself quickly swept up into the glamorous world of illustration. Her old design habits drive her to work a little text here and there into her drawings, and she loves to handle the design of her assignments from start to finish. She is inspired by social causes and enticed by projects that can handle a good dose of eccentricity. Elise has written and illustrated several books for children, including Adopt a Glurb, published by Blue Apple Books. She is currently at work on a graphic novel for MacMillan.
