David Henry Souter (30 March 1862 – 22 September 1935)[1] was an Australian artist and journalist. A stocky and humorous man, Souter wrote short stories, verse, light articles and plays, with a capable and ready pen. He did a fair amount of painting in watercolor, but his reputation rests on his black-and-white work, which, considering the mass of it, was very even in quality. [citation needed] He also illustrated volumes written by Ethel Turner and other Australian authors.
