Hers may not be a name you’re overly familiar with just yet, but trust us when we say that Samantha Ellis is definitely one to watch from this compositional point onwards. Despite attending an art foundation course during her formative years, contemporary cityscape practitioner, Ellis concedes that she was largely self-taught; yet has rapidly transformed her budding hobby into a full-time occupation in the intervening years. Although with the degree of graphic skill and illustrative confidence conveyed in her work, you’d be excused for thinking Ellis had chalked up a number of years’ experience

The very latest pictorial release from this old creative head perched atop young, ambitious shoulders is aptly entitled, ‘Time Flies’, and compositionally charts a collection of, arguably, some of London’s most associated visual props; ranging from a red Routemaster double-decker bus to Big Ben’s clock tower. Ergo, by its very visual nature it’s set to strike an instant chord with fans of all things capital city/quintessentially English to the very core. On this note, we’d subsequently implore all interested parties to contact us at their first convenience to make sure that they don’t miss out on this future Ellis classic.
