Hello, my name is Natsuki Otani and I am from Tokyo, studied at Norwich University College of the Arts and am working in England as a freelance illustrator.
I have a style that is best described in colour. It’s probably the most distinctive feature of my work and bold vibrant colour forms the basis of a working practice that seeks to unite dreams and reality. I try to give the viewer a visual feast of colour and tone but with a darker side, that just like shade is to highlight, my surreal macabre touches are the counterpoint to my sweet and childlike innocent subjects. I work using concentrated watercolour inks on heavy grade art paper in a range of fields but I have a bias towards fashion illustration and portraits.
I'm always open for commissions and collaboration, so please feel free to email me at natsuki@natsukiotani.co.uk Read Less
