Zoe Keller is an American artist and illustrator renowned for her meticulously detailed, large-scale drawings created primarily with graphite and ink. A native of Woodstock, New York, her deep connection to nature was fostered by a creative upbringing in the rural Catskills, shaping her future as an artist and amateur naturalist. Keller's work is characterized by a scientific precision and a narrative quality, blending realism with hints of surrealism to explore the complex, interconnected beauty of fragile ecosystems. 

Keller's art is deeply rooted in environmental activism and the natural sciences. She places a special focus on at-risk species and wildlands, creating visual narratives that highlight the biodiversity facing human-driven mass extinction. Each drawing serves as an urgent call to action, aiming to inspire reverence for the natural world. Keller's immersive process involves months of academic research, collaborations with the scientific community, and on-the-ground experiences in wild places through artist residencies and self-directed expeditions. She has noted that drawing is her way of understanding how organisms and ecosystems work, and in "darker moments," her art functions as a "mourning ritual" for species that may soon vanish
