Holly Warburton is a British illustrator, animator and artist. She has always been passionate about movement and faces and been drawn to observational sketching. Holly studied illustration and animation at Kingston University and now is based in Bath, west of London. Since University she moved most to drawing digitally but keeping to the same style and techniques. Holly’s art was featured in an exhibition at the Spoke Art Gallery, San Francisco.
Hollys art style switches between real and digital brushes. Although both art styles are very different, her mark making still keeps their beautiful shapes and has become hard to tell the difference. Her illustrations are formed by layers on layers of soft brush strokes. She uses a huge range of eye-catching colours, tending to exaggerate the colours she sees and paints them bright almost with a neon hue. In her art she avoids using black to define features and instead replaces it with more colours.
I personally always been very attracted to Hollys style. Every art work she’s created are incredibly beautiful and inspiring to me. Process of image is the perfect opportunity to follow Hollys footsteps are create soft and stunning art works. I would love to try paint or draw portraits like hers and manipulate colour.
