Georgia’s Sketchbook — Vol. 1

The team at Uptown Loft Studios are pleased to unveil a new regular series from our in-house graphic designer & illustrator, entitled ‘Georgia’s Sketchbook’.

Volume 1 of the series consists of five illustrations based on photos Georgia sourced over a period of time, with each of the images appealing to her based on the model’s evocative expressions and subsequent emotional resonance they created. Although there appears to be no connection between this random assortment of people, the collective grey and pink hues draw a definite link between them all & the varied intensities of linework create depth, whilst she used only two brush sizes and a very restricted colour palette.

Pink and grey as a colour combination is one Georgia has wanted to incorporate into a body of work for a while and she chose to apply it to portraiture, aiming to create simple yet emotive pieces. The wanting gaze of each image will draw you into the illustration and whether they are viewed singularly or collectively, they are sure to leave a lasting impression.
