The watercolor art form is getting a facelift by many young artists, including illustrator and animator Henry McCausland. This 30-year-old painter has given the form a casual, graphic appeal that makes each image look like it was created for a comic book. His technique is so flawless, it is hard to imagine that each painting was done by hand.
Living and working on the east coast of Kent with his daughter, Henry McCausland paints these stunning scenes that are so full of narrative, a person could string the whole set together to create a complete and vibrant story. Hopefully, it is only a matter of time that he is enlisted for a graphic novel.
Henry McCausland is currently being represented by Unseen Agency, and is constantly working on his next big project.
