Catwalk...


Alice Tait, as I have said in a previous post, is a rather new illustrator that I have come across. She has a number of styles to her name, (as have I), some include pen and ink and water colour. I was browsing through her website and came across this image.
Of course it grabbed my attention as it is fashion related. 
I love how when one uses water colours, you can get such a different outcome with them. You can make accidents when using them, for instance, letting the water colour drip, or one can miss out some things, i.e. the faces or details with in the body.
Even though there has been bits in the 3 figures which are missing, you still can get the overall image and still appreciate what they are trying to do...

Alice Tait


It's rather strange how I came about this illustrator.
I was at the computer and I came about a post card, (which funnily enough, was meant for me!) and it imediately stood out to me. So I went on the internet to try and find more about her- see if she is well known.
Turns out that she is- I don't know too much about her, but I definitely know I like her work.
Espeically this image on the above...
It has such a delicate quality, even though what the contents is, she still makes it look beautiful.
I love the simplicity and limited colour pallette and composition about it, as well as the very simple faint line... reminds me of my favourite illustrators work, Tina Berning.
