# Landscape-Infused Portraiture (UPDATE) The Blendscapes Series by Oriol Angrill Jorda is Artful By Jana Pijak | Published 2013-09-12 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blendscapes References: [honestlywtf](http://honestlywtf.com/art/blendscapes/) & [saatchionline](http://www.saatchionline.com/profiles/portfolio/id/332862) Entitled 'Blendscapes', this alluring image series by Oriol Angrill Jorda fuses the artist's human subjects with [lifelike landscape imagery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/landscape-intervention). The talented Spanish illustrator captures serene depictions of her human subjects and uses a palette of light pastel color strokes when creating her quietly powerful masterpieces. Oriol Angrill Jorda uses watercolors, colored pencils, and graphite as her medium of choice, combining the three tools to create her breathtaking illustrations. Resembling a series of double exposure photographs, the 'Blendscapes' portrait series evokes a strong sense of emotion and explores an individual's connection to the natural world. These delicate and elegant portraits feature landscape details of [mountainous peaks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whispering-mountains), [blooming florals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/structural-botany) and even a series of realistically depicted animal images that add to its unique aesthetic. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 63% | Activity: 41% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Live Arts](https://www.trendhunter.com/livearts) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Landscape-infused Art:** Opportunity for artists to incorporate landscape elements into traditional portraiture, creating an emotional connection with nature. - **Double Exposure Imagery:** Use of double exposure techniques creates a unique visual aesthetic and can have a strong emotional impact on viewers. - **Mixed Media Illustration:** Combining different mediums such as watercolors, colored pencils, and graphite creates unique and breathtaking illustrations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fine Art:** Artists and galleries can showcase and sell landscape-infused artwork to a growing environmentally conscious audience. - **Photography:** Photographers can use double exposure techniques to create emotion-evoking imagery for creative advertising campaigns. - **Book Illustration:** Illustrators can use mixed media techniques to create unique illustrations for eco-themed children's books, inspiring the next generation of environmentally conscious consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stunning Origami Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origami-portaits.md) - [Paper Curvature Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-curves.md) - [AI-Generated Real-World Transformations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-generated-world.md) - [Hand-Painted Watercolor Prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emma-webster.md) - [Painting-Immersive Photo Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-ground-exhibition.md) - [Vibrantly Colorful Dynamic Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kayla-rumpp.md) - [Striking Urban Wildlife Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clare-allin.md) - [Digital City-Inspired Art Works](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grand-central-station.md) - [Interactive Architectural Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folding-landscape.md)
