They say that the best artists are not people who paint one picture for years, but illustrators who constantly hold a pencil in their hands and create several sketches a day. Of course, it is not worth taking this statement as a basis, but for some people it is more than true. Take illustrator Uli Knorzer, for example. He is famous not for his massive works, but for small, as if not finished, sketches.
Each character in his works is thoroughly traced. Every hair seems to move in the wind, and the fire of a lighter will incinerate the picture. The artist studied fine arts at schools in Offenbach and Paris. Initially, Uli Knorzer drew only black and white paintings, but over time he decided to add a little color to his works. Moreover, this exception does not apply to the whole picture as a whole, but to some one part of it.
Typically, the artist draws in the color of the characters' faces, leaving the surroundings and clothes of the characters in a traditionally black and white. And although the people in Uli Knorzer's paintings look less colorful than the Scandinavian fairy tales on the canvases of the artist Christer Karlstad, this does not make them less significant in the art world.
