Greetings community, today I want to share my latest work inspired by love, the date of February 14 is approaching so I did something simple in a portrait, I used quite vivid colors but the majority were cold, I really liked the combination that I used and the different nuances that I was able to achieve, I hope you like it.
I made my sketch thinking of a portrait that had a few drops of glitter falling down the face, with a hairstyle that could show the face well and thus apply many details later, I chose the colors to use and this time I used a range of purple, pink tones even greens, oranges and yellows, I wanted it to have a lot of contrasts, I love exploring with other tones and combine it to give a different lighting to the skin, in a new layer add more tones and with the brush of a smaller size i begin to form the facial features, little by little I was blurring the tones on the face to give more shape and softness to the skin, I painted the hair with a dark reddish brown tone.
Now I started to detail the neck and torso and then continue adding a kind of shading in the part where I wanted the glitter to fall, then I started to fill with a pink tone and a medium opacity also adding new layers with a blending mode to give it that effect of glitter, creating lots of dots with the help of some textured brushes, add lighting on the hair using a soft orange tone and take advantage of creating some highlights on the face, draw two small hearts on the edge of the eyes simulating a kind of makeup, I wanted to make these hearts look neon so I played a bit with the blending modes of the layers and brush to make a neon pink and apply a pure white in the center.
For the background I chose similar colors to the ones I used in the portrait but this time I used the liquify tool to give it a more abstract look, finally I applied some pretty minimal color adjustments and applied some missing highlights.
