I love Duffy's use of soft, pastel colours within many of her pieces to create an almost calming atmosphere surrounding her work. I love her use of mediums like mixing both watercolour and pen illustrations within her work to create realism within her pieces. She does this by using washes of colour to create the foundation of her design before adding lines of detail within the shapes to make them more lifelike. I want incorporate a mix of mediums within my own piece like watercolour and ink to create realism within my piece.
