Halsey Berryman fishe/her) is an illustrator and lettering artist from Washington, DC, who grew up between DC, Harvard, Massachusetts, and Taos, New Mexico. Halsey received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2014 from the Corcoran College of Art + Design, where she studied painting and drawing. Some of her clients include the Washington Post, AOC for Congress, Sleater-Kinney, Austin City Limits Music Festival, PBS, Bird Collective, and the National Day Laborer Organizing Network. Halsey’s work explores the interaction between the human and natural world, and what these often humorous exchanges and commonalities can teach us during the Anthropocene. Drawn to the most maligned creatures, Halsey’s work is often centered around the underdogs of the animal world, underscoring social and political parallels with animal behavior and cultural signifiers through visual satire. As a dedicated realist, she is inspired by vintage nature illustrations, but as a fan of color, her north star is risograph printing. Halsey lives in Takoma Park, Maryland with her wife, two dogs, three cats, and a collection of plants.
