Elle Michalka is an artist from Texas who attended CalArts for a couple of years before leaving school to work in animation on productions such as Gravity Falls and more recently Green Lantern: The Animated Series.

The level of technical skill and craftsmanship in this work should inspire any visual artist and not just those who work as illustrators.
