Hello! my name is Holly Alp and im a freelance illustrator living in Spain. In my work I use a varied range of media, some images were created using anything from 1 to 6 different types of mediums. The mediums consist mostly of ink, oils, watercolour, pastels, gutta and acrylic paint. Although a majority of artwork is hand painted, I use Photoshop 7 to do special effects, backgrounds and colour intensity on selected pieces. 

Influenced by artists such as Yogenkaisha Amano, Brian Froud, Arthur Rackham and Bruce McNally. Especially growing up in the 80s and early 90s watching cartoons/films of fiction and fantasy like “The Mysterious Cities of Gold”, Japanese anime/Manga, “The Labyrinth”, “The Dark Crystal” and “The Flight of Dragons” to name a few.
