Biographies
Lend life a coherence you never knew it had!
What could be more meaningful than to offer someone the story of their life? A moment, a milestone, an epiphany, a voyage, a falling in love, an overcoming of adversity. People or places that are special. Their ten best outfits. Or, why not, your own life!
Eloise Caleo’s illustrated biographies craft these stories, favouring ink and watercolour pictures over words, using photographs, interviews and observation. Available by commission.
