Way Back,

in October of 2017,


 we featured some fantastic work by Zoe Keller, and here are some more from her, above “Where We Once Lived II,” copper belly water snake, graphite on paper, 14 x 14 inches, all images © Zoe Keller, 

 “Black Pine Snake,” graphite on paper, 34 x 43 inches, through a winding series of delicate illustrations, Zoe Keller explores the fragility of the natural world,

“Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake,” graphite on paper, 34 x 43 inches, in Scale & Bone, the Portland-based illustrator renders copper belly water snakes, San Francisco garters, and eastern diamondback rattlers,

 “Eastern Indigo,” graphite on paper, 27.5 x 36 inches, many of Keller’s offer “opportunities to collaborate directly with scientists working on the ground to protect imperiled species.” The illustrator recently worked with Save the Snakes, an organization that steers conservation efforts and attempts to reduce harm by humans. Her serpent-focused poster will be unveiled this summer in time for World Snake Day,

“Memento Mori I” (2020), giant garter snake and pipevine swallowtail, graphite on paper, 14 x 14 inches, Scale & Bone currently is on view at Antler Gallery, which is offering a virtual tour on its site,you can follow Keller on Instagram for updates on her intertwined illustrations, and check her shop for prints, postcards, and stickers, what I would not give to have the talent and inspiration of Zoe, some people are just so talented.
