Reseach: Holly Exley


I like how in this illustration the water colours haven't been blended together but placing the different shades next to each other still create that look of the colours being blended. The different colours placed side by side create shading in the hair and on the face. 


Watercolour painting style. I really like how the self portrait shown on this cover is painted in different shades of blue with the rosey cheeks and lips being the only other colour. 
Her style of illustration is very realistic, although the watercolour and colour palette give it a contemporary look.  Lionheart Magazine features crafts, art, music and anything artistic that is trending so the watercolour painting portrait style fits.
