Elwira Pawlikowska is a watercolour artist from Poland. She graduated from faculty of Architcture in 2010, she's now focused on freelance illustration and graphic design. She spends her time creating illustrations for books, magazines, music albums and games.
Majority of her artwork is created with traditional media, sometimes supported by graphics. She stated that her inspiration is fantasy books, melodic music and long walks through the woods.
Elwira's work is extremely detailed for a watercolour painting. I find her work very liberalizing. I looked at a few images from her blog and realised that she seems to work with basic colours, mainly working up the tones with just ordinary black watercolour and getting different outcomes when applying more water.
I find using water colour paints to be quite a slow process, the build up of layers within her work is what i find interesting, the way she has contrasted the highlighted areas next to the darker and shaded parts creates an in depth finish.

Although she doesn't actually full on capture the architectural aspects in all her drawings, you can see that her influences vary from topic.
As an artist i find her very interesting, the quality of her work and overall outcomes look effective and original.
