Stunning and Expressive Watercolor Portraits of Wildlife Animals by Slaveika Aladjova

European artist Slaveika Aladjova composes stunning watercolor portraits, which pay homage to the beauty of wildlife. Drawing inspiration from nature, Aladjova’s work possess an untamed and highly expressive quality, much like her wild subjects. Aladjova’s exclusively uses the dripping technique to add an abstract and dramatic effect to each illustration.

To intensify the beauty of each subject, the artist applies a variety of pastels and rich hues, which beautifully compliment each other. She has become a master in color theory and composition. She skillfully uses soft pastels like pinks and lavenders to reflect the demure role of the deer in the animal kingdom; while she adds cool shades of blue to the arctic wolf to express its calculated and silent predator reputation in the wild. 

Overall, each animal is humanized with the delicate touch of a soft hazel color in the eyes. The paint colors are intelligently used to match their personality and intensity. You can find her collection in her Etsy shop.
