Carson Ellis
By Brian Carpenter on July 5, 2009 5:34 PM
The cover illustration for Boy From Black Mountain is by the great Carson Ellis from Portland, Oregon. Carson is known for her illustrations for children's books such as The Mysterious Benedict Society and The Composer Is Dead and her artwork for The Decemberists. She and her husband Colin Meloy (of the Decemberists) have a three-year old son Hank. Carson used the photograph of my grandparents' house pictured in the previous blog entry as inspiration for the house in the lower left corner. Boy From Black Mountain will be released September 29, 2009 in the US and Europe on Cuneiform Records.
