I created my first vlog of my travels out in Japan! This was so much fun to make and I definitely will be returning to Japan soon too.

Please take a look and enjoy!

Life imitates art

May 11, 2018 | Aliyah Art

My good friend Kaylie and I (@girlwiththeredbob on instagram) went out around South Kensington on the hunt for Wisterias and I really wanted to imitate an illustration I had drawn months ago. It had just so happened to fall in to place that whilst just popping in to H&M they had a tshirt design so similar to the one I drew (and I still would like my design to get made!) and Wisterias are a beautiful purple colour, I just had to make it real!

She is beautiful, inspiring and a great role model to look up to. It’s Yara Shahidi!

Beyonce Coachella 2018

April 17, 2018 | Aliyah Art

Beyonce was the first black female artist to headline at Coachella and her performance was AMAZING! I wanted to create an illustration to celebrate such a great moment and appreciate the Queen Bey herself!

You can find a speed painting video of the illustration process here: https://youtu.be/lG2wv2a6c58

Lavender Girl

March 25, 2018April 12, 2018 | Aliyah Art

I was wandering through the darkness and then followed the light in to a vast garden and grew myself some lavender. That heavenly, calming scent and its purple, ethereal appearance; it was me growing a new home for myself.

I’m planning to animate more and create more illustrative pieces, I have a lot of ideas and projects in the pipeline. I can not wait to show you!

World Book Day 2018

March 1, 2018 | Aliyah Art

A small and sweet animation I did to commend World Book Day 2018. Reading has become an important part of my life and I now freelance as an illustrator for children’s books! Also an excuse to dress up (but I didn’t today because of the snow!)

Ali in Autumn

November 29, 2017 | Aliyah Art

Something I’ve been working on and experimenting with a new style and way of colouring. Also I uploaded before the end of November so it still counts as Autumn!

ScribersHive

October 5, 2017October 5, 2017 | Aliyah Art

I have been volunteering with a company called You Press over the summer to help create a website called ScribersHive. A place that gives young people (or anybody!) a voice and a place to express their opinions or creativity. I helped create posters promoting the website’s release, the logos for the podcast “Hidden Voices” and the “Comics” section – which I also have created a comic for inspired by one of the articles.

Thank you very much!
