Hello good people on hive, i am here to share my todays portrait painting. The other day i painted a portrait using clip studio paint and today to change the feel, i used photoshop to paint this. Also because i wanted to experiment with some highly textured brush on a portrait. These brushes are mainly used for landscapes because you know, how nature has so much different texture to it....
Most of the time we use softer brush to paint portraits, if not, then we still try to blend them as smoothly as possible... But making a smooth blend of colors with a hard edge brush with texture on is really hard, instead you can just keep all those textures. It wont look much real but it would give more "art" vibe...
Used Reference photo for this portrait painting.
I couldn't get all the things that are in the photo, all the jewels sure makes her more "her", but that seemed too much detailed. i even sketched the glass she is wearing but that was covering a big part of her eyes so i removed that because i love drawing and showing eyes..... I would rather just focus in a point and then paint other area in a way so that focused point gets more attention... I tried to do that here, whether i succeeded or not depends on if the viewers realized it....
Here are some process shots of this painting:
