This piece is made by illustrator, John Holcroft, and primarily consists of blue and red, along with whites and grays. The work above was made as an editorial illustration about how addictive ‘likes’ can be (seemingly on Facebook). I believe the limitation on the color palette helps propose the idea of the work more straightforwardly and possibly less distracting. It may also be because the colors are not in bright shades, rather more pastel or muted.

This illustration was found on the ”uncommissioned editorial work” section of his website which is: http://www.johnholcroft.com/
