Hello! My name is Elena Daly and I am a versatile Boston based artist and art director that works in a wide range of styles and subject matters. I have expertise in illustration and graphic design. While I can tailor my skills to a wide range of ideas and visions, I’ve personally always had a fascination with the unreal. Monsters and aliens peppered my childhood with wonder and inspiration, and I carry that with me today. I very much enjoy figure drawing as well, and love to design characters and creatures of all kinds. In terms of style, my personal one is more realistic than not, but I can work in really any style that is needed.
