Bio: Giselle Harrington is reportage artist who uses watercolor to paint from life. Giselle paints along the East Coast, USA, exploring different regions, getting to know the specific environments, architecture and observable things people do for work and recreation. Her goal is to show the diversity of worlds (environments and cultures that people inhabit) through her reportage painting.

She also works as an commercial illustrator, primarily of book covers (see examples below), and has been teaching adult painting and drawing since 2018. She has a MFA in Illustration from the School of Visual Arts in NYC (2018), and studied watercolor painting at the Art Students League, also in NYC. She currently lives in Colrain, MA and part of the year in Charleston, SC. She grew up in New Hampshire.

Giselle moves frequently and has been a working artist and illustrator in Western Mass., the Boston area, New York City, and Charleston, South Carolina.
