Kelsey Oseid

Kelsey is an illustrator and lover of all things nature. Her work centers around an array of natural history subjects, often inspired by the myriad ways humans connect with and study the natural world. She received her first scat identification book around the age of 10 and loved that it helped her learn to identify the natural world around her. Her gouache illustrations focus on natural history subjects like taxonomy, biodiversity, and taxidermy, as well as related subjects like astronomy and the ways humans relate to the natural world. Her first book as an author, What We See in the Stars: An Illustrated Tour of the Night Sky, came out in Fall 2017. She lives in Minneapolis with her husband, Nick, and their two cats, Jamie and Fiona.
