Reference: DC-Group-0034

Description: Cartoons by Celia Allison featuring 'Cecily', which relate to social life and women's experiences in New Zealand. As the artist explains, "In case you have not been introduced to Cecily she is a cartoon character. Not just a stick-thin, pencil-line drawing though, she is a well-rounded character, sometimes more well-rounded than she would like! Cecily is someone that women will recognise, for Cecily's foibles are their own. Cecily diets, skips gym classes, sometimes drinks too much and worries about how she looks. She has bad hair days, occasionally consults her horoscope and struggles with technology. She is a modern woman who lives life to the full as she pursues career, friendship and love." Part of the NZ Cartoon Archive Celia Allison, born 1958, grew up in rural Canterbury, and attended school in Timaru and Christchurch. She holds degrees from the University of Otago and Wellington Polytechnic. Following her graduation Allison worked in illustration and graphic design in Wellington and in London. In 1988 Allison returned from Europe and started Moa Revival, a stationery company producing products with a notable emphasis on Kiwiana. She began creating Cecily cartoons in the late 1990s.
