One listed Reference is |ref name=artist|
"Female Illustrators of the 50's: Evaline Ness" by Leif Peng (blog), "Female Illustrators of the 50s: Evaline Ness". Peng suggests that most of its content may be from a magazine feature on Ness, American Artist Jan 1956. These Dec 2009 uploads by Leif Peng may be useful or interesting to someone here.
Another is |ref name=magicdoor|
"Evaline Ness" by Charles Bayless, with more and more substantial critical observations than any other online source afaik. That will be most valuable if it is considered Reliable. —[Later: I have used it in the article but it has untapped potential if acceptable here. I don't know whether he is owner, employee, customer, or internet friend of the bookshop publisher.]
The Truthful Harp (first ed., 1967 chapterbook)
(with cover image) may be an example of 1960s-fashionable "drawings with sharp, angular figures, muted colors and representational or cartoon-like styles" (Charles Bayless). The three colors on the cover are the only ones in the book and the character
Fflewddur Fflam is very angular on every page ;-)
By the way Bayless (above) notes that Eliot Ness was her second husband, after a brief first marriage.
... According to our biography
Eliot Ness, he was Cleveland Public Safety Director 1935 to 1942 or so. Married to Evaline Ness 1939 to 1945, lived in Cleveland and Washington. The crucial source is "Ness, Eliot", The Encyclopedia of Cleveland History, which says
(quote) Ness was married 3 times. His first marriage was in 1929 to Edna Staley, they divorced in 1938. On 14 Oct. 1939, Ness married Evaline McAndrew, they divorced in 1945. His third marriage was to Elizabeth Anderson Seaver on 31 Jan. 1946; in 1947 he adopted a son, Robert Warner.
This gives 1939 rather than 1938 date for Evaline's marriage to Eliot. Jointly with her known maiden name Michelow, that Cleveland name Evaline McAndrew supports calling this her second marriage (Bayless, mentioned above), which I intend to do in the next revision. --

Laurence Bergreen, Capone: The Man and His Era, Simon & Schuster, 1996.
—supports the fact (Ness m. 1939-10-14 divorcee Evaline McAndrews, who worked at Higbee's dept store ...). Relying on the
excerpt at google books, I have referenced pages 599–600. It appears that pages 595–602 (on Cleveland Public Safety Director Eliot Ness) may be broadly useful here regarding the Ness courtship and marriage. --

Bergreen spells "McAndrews" but there are numerous online sources for "McAndrew" including both academic-affiliated Cleveland projects. --

Not reflected in the article:
Eliot Ness: The Man Behind the Myth, ch. 19 "Midlife Crisis", by Marilyn Bardsley
[1]
four paragraphs that begin: (1939) "While Ness had many girlfriends, most of his attention was focused on an artist named Evaline McAndrew who was more than decade younger than he was." [only eight years younger]
(1940) "since marrying Evaline, Ness was spending less time on the job; the couple had become part of Cleveland society, hobnobbing with the wealthy, attending numerous social engagements, and entertaining frequently and lavishly at their new Lakewood boat house."
