Happy weekend dear community, recently I wanted to draw things that have a lot of light or at least a point of light that stands out, I really liked this type of art, where I make the character with a touch of realism, but at the same time a light is also the protagonist of the composition, this time I present this drawing to which I wanted to make the skin as if it were breaking like stone, a girl who for me is a kind of princess/witch who has a curse on her that is destroying her little by little little, you can also give it the interpretation you like, this time I worked with warm reddish tones, a color palette that I don't usually use because i feel like i can’t manage well these tones very well with, but I definitely loved how it turned out, I worked with more patience and trying to better understand how to highlight these colors and create something cleaner.
Hope you like.
I made my sketch with a clear idea of what I wanted to capture on the canvas, I began to paint using quite intense pink tones and some red tones, I filled in a new layer with more tones for the face to begin to give it more shape, for the hair I used a desaturated red that I apply with a soft brush and a hair texture brush, in a new layer I start to blend the colors on the face to give softness to the skin and define the faction.
I started to paint the clothes, I chose to make a dark dress with low sleeves that fall over the arm, then I applied some light on the clothes to create the shape I wanted, on the hair I applied some reflections of light and shadow to give it more realism.
I took care of placing the background, for this I chose a not so intense red color, then with other similar tones but lighter and darker I began to draw some parts of the background, then I began to shape it but without exaggerating since I wanted a simple background and out of focus, detail the rest of the skin and the hand, also apply brown in the cracks of the arms and draw the bits of it falling apart.
Paint a crown on the head, for this make some strokes without much care or detail, giving it the shape of a crown, continue putting color on the chest and also some parts of the face, finally make some color adjustments with the curves tool to give it more intensity and color to the whole drawing.
