About Alex HB Designs

I have long been inspired by the power of botanical illustrations to highlight the intricate beauty of plants and convey a feeling of peacefulness and tranquillity. I explore this power in my work through the use of creative photographic techniques. A light box is employed to bring out the fine details in plants and I digitally paint in elements from multiple exposures to create compositions which blur the lines between photography and illustration. Through my art I explore issues which are important to me, such as: LGBTQ+ history and rights, awareness of chronic illnesses and the importance of biodiversity.Read their story
