Harriet Lee-Merrion’s Quietly Strange Illustrations

Har­ri­et Lee-Mer­rion is an illus­tra­tor who’s based in Bris­tol, UK. Her qui­et illus­tra­tions are min­i­mal­ist-style draw­ings that fea­ture a lot of soli­tary fig­ures and desert­ed spaces. Even when they are bustling scenes, every­one and every­thing still feels like they are on their own.

I love the odd and sur­re­al qual­i­ties in her work. The illus­tra­tions aren’t overt­ly strange, but once you real­ly look at them you’ll see some sur­pris­ing things — peo­ple who have more than one set of eyes or even heads.

You can pur­chase some of Lee-Mer­rion’s work in her shop. Fol­low her on Tum­blr, too, if that’s your thing.
