Hello everyone in the Hive community

Looking for references for future portraits, I find this photo of this girl who perfectly represents what the vast majority of people think of what an artist looks like, but reality could not be more different, since in my case I am more than always walk with a notebook to draw everything and not with a sense of superiority to go criticizing everything and by the way, for now I have no friend who wears a beret hahaha.

I always start with a pencil sketch to be sure of the structure

I did not want to make the very rough black parts with pens so I used a black sharpie to fill them very quickly.

Later I have continued with the face which I have shaded with a black pen passing very smoothly over and over again.

I wanted to give a pink or fuchsia touch to the hair to make it stand out from the rest of the drawing.

In the end I have added these paint stains to represent the artist's work a little more.
