Natalia Sanabria Uses Illustration Watercolor to Create 2D Life

— March 8, 2010 — Art & Design
Natalia Sanabria, or 'NATALEA' on Flickr, is a talented illustrator whose stencils come to life with her sparing use of watercolors. Each of her illustrations -- just a few can be seen in the gallery -- is lively and fun.

Natalia Sanabria seems to be particularly interested in illustrating hair. It would appear that some of Natalia Sanabria's subjects share genetic lineage with a certain member of the Addams Family.

Implications - Giving the illustrations a longer look, it's easy to see how Natalia Sanabria has begun to draw attention to her artwork. By blending elements of surrealism, portraiture and effervescent coloring in her work, she has created a memorable and distinctive aesthetic that separates her work from the masses.
Trend Themes
1. Watercolor Illustrations - Opportunity for artists and designers to explore the use of watercolors in creating unique and vibrant illustrations.
2. Surrealistic Art - Potential for artists to experiment with blending surrealism, portraiture, and vibrant colors to create visually captivating artwork.
3. Distinctive Aesthetics in Art - Demand for artists who can develop a unique and memorable artistic style that stands out in a crowded marketplace.
Industry Implications
1. Art and Design - Art galleries, online platforms, and interior design companies can showcase and sell watercolor illustrations and surrealistic artwork.
2. Publishing - Publishing houses can collaborate with artists to create book covers and illustrations with distinctive aesthetics.
3. Apparel and Merchandise - Companies can license artistic designs to print on clothing, accessories, and other merchandise, catering to consumers who appreciate unique and visually striking artwork.
