Today I felt like drawing, but at the same time I didn't feel that motivated. It's rare, but it happens to me a lot. So today's drawing doesn't have any deep meaning; it was simply improvisation. I even changed the hair about three times before the final sketch. I got a little frustrated, but in the end, it's all part of the process of creating a drawing. Ultimately, I don't know how to feel about it, since there are things I like about this portrait, but others I don't. I hope you like it.

After struggling for a while, I was able to finish the sketch. Then I began painting with highly saturated, yellowish colors combined with pink and brown tones. I applied shadows and highlights, then further built the structure by adding more colors. I blended everything with a medium opacity to maintain the texture. To finish the face, I painted the eyebrows and eyelashes black.

Now I painted the hair black and added some light brown highlights. For the background, I used different colors I subtracted from the skin and mixed them together. The hair looked a bit plain, so I decided to draw small pearls. I don't know why I wanted to add a sort of heart shape in red on the eye, but I liked it, so I left it. As always, I added highlights to the face, and finally, it occurred to me to add several effects to give it a different finish. First, I used a hard brush and applied a few strokes of color around the edges, then played with the layer options to make the blue lines appear luminous. I don't know if this wasn't a good idea, but I liked it a little better this way. And I finished by applying a blurred effect.

The way you personally play around with color is amazing. The sketches and the varieties of colors is really a smart move. I especially admire the bead-like display used in holding her hair up. I really love how colorful your art is, it captivated me almost immediately.
Well done.
Oh Thanks alot! 😁
