Reportage ( Artist Lottie Stoddart )

Lottie uses the illustration style known as reportage, but the difference between her style and most other illustrators who use reportage is how she uses a lot of precision in her lines and adds details to all her images and I personally Havant seen to many reportage illustrators who do this. From most of her pieces it seems that she mainly uses pencil and colouring pens to add the colour and shading to the illustrations.Lottie Stoddart King's-Troop-Guns
Out of all the illustrations that I have seen from Lottie this is by far my favourite because of how she hasn't used many lines to create the shape of the cannons and the positions of each one of them fits with each position of the piece. I think from looking at her art work its made me realise that to add detail to the illustrations you don't need fancy line work, all you need is to use some simple shapes to recreate the certain aspect of the image or object.
