A few days ago it was the day of the dead, I wanted to do something that was inspired by that day, but I had very little free time, luckily today I was able to finish my idea and it is a drawing inspired by a catrina, I love catrinas because they are colorful and full of a lot of decoration, it is definitely art, but they also represent death in a rather peculiar way.
For this drawing I used blue and red tones, red was a color that emerged in the process and that I ended up liking very much mixed with the color palette that I chose for my portrait.
I made the sketch, this pose was a bit complicated for me, at first I thought to make him other clothes, but finally I chose to put a dark suit on him, I started painting with desaturated blue and gray tones, for his eyes I used a fairly strong blue and his lips a red live.
In a new layer I began to paint mixing the tones to create her face, then I painted her outfit black and for her hair I chose a light brown.
I started to give life to the hair applying shadows and lights, paint some catrina decorations on her face, for the background use the help of the AI and create a background full of flowers, put some black roses on her head, add some butterflies around her and her hair, then apply a bit of light to some parts of the drawing using light red and white, making the most important things stand out.
Although it was a drawing that I did quickly without many details, I liked it a lot, a little late for the celebration but the catrinas never go out of style.

Que genial obra de arte @alexa.art! La profundidad de los ojos, con su mirada penetrante, mezclado con lo femenino y a su vez el color rojo en el fondo dándole tanta fuerza es increíble. El detalle de las mariposas que con su luz iluminan su cabello en movimiento, me encantó. Un magnifico trabajo, te felicito Alexa!❤️
Beautiful
