Good evening, friends.
Mornings have become my favorite time to draw and pass the time while I wait for my son to get out of school. Today, I took advantage of the early hours to paint, and it was amazing. I tried experimenting with colors I don't usually use very often, this time combining greens with yellows, a mix I honestly hate, but today, for some strange reason, I felt like doing it. In the end, I liked how it turned out. It's something different, with very strong colors that are difficult to work with, at least for me. I hope you like it.

I made the sketch and then painted the skin. Despite not being sure about the color palette I chose, I decided to try it and so I started placing browns, yellows and greens, a little dark red for the lips. In other layers I added more colors until I formed the whole skin and I started to blend, leaving a more realistic result.

Now I wanted to paint a kind of crack-like hollow on his chest. I painted it the same color as the background, which in this case was a very dark green. Then I painted many stars in light green tones, both inside the hollow on his chest and on the background. For the hair, I used a base brown color and then added shadows and highlights with slightly more opaque and desaturated brown tones. To finish, I added a little more detail to the face and also the eyebrows and eyelashes. I also added highlights to the eyes, lips, and nose, and highlighted some of the stars. Finally, I decided to add a slight blur to the background.
