#5 @MICHELLEVELLART DVF discovered Toronto-based Michelle Vella on Insta when Vella drew some fan art of the designer. (See her interpretation of Iris Apfel on page 26.)

Honoured to be selected as one of ELLE CANADA's Top 5 Canadian Illustrators on Their Radar. I am so flattered to be mentioned with fellow illustrators @blairz @unskilledworker @drawbertson @travelwritedraw whose work on Instagram inspired me in developing my own individual BIGEYE style when I started this journey in 2015.
