About Elf

Based in Bristol, United Kingdom, Caroline Denton is the illustrator and designer behind Elf Paper Co. A dedicated lover of art and letters, Denton hand-draws every design, building a collection that balances a personal touch with bold, graphic impact. Her practice is defined by this hands-on approach, ensuring that the spirit of her original sketches remains present in every finished piece. Her work is heavily influenced by a retro 1970s aesthetic, often merging Art Deco geometry with a playful, groovy energy. Beyond the vintage inspiration, Denton uses her platform to highlight environmental activism and animal life, frequently featuring motifs like the Arctic wolf and mermaids. This blend of advocacy and irreverent humor creates a distinct voice within her illustration work.
