#ULOG: Today's Achievement (Artwork #14) | A Step-by-Step Illustrat...

I've been following a lot of artists on instagram and it's probably the best thing I've ever done on instagram hahaha. I see a lot of amazing artworks. These artists inspire me on what artwork I'd be making next. One of the artists that I admire the most is Lydia Fenwick (Hive account@lyfeillustration). She is a full time illustrator. She mostly makes watercolor portraits and digital arts, and she even sells coloring books which she drew herself.

So, this artwork of mine is inspired by one of her works. If you want to check it out, just visit her instagram profile. It took me three hours to finish this. So without further ado, let me present my process.

Materials

All photos are mine and I used my Oppo A37 in taking these pictures. And the materials that I used were:
✔️ Watercolor set
✔️ Paintbrushes
✔️ Eraser
✔️ HB Staedtler pencil
✔️ Berkeley watercolor pad

Process

^{I apologize for this photo's quality.}

I did the sketch.

^{I put tapes on the sides so that the paint won't scatter on the edges of the paper.}

Then I started painting her skin and hair.

I added color to her shirt and followed up details on her skin and hair.

Added few details on her shirt and lips.

Then I painted the background and did some highlighting.

Final Product

This is my favorite artwork that I made so far. I hope you like it too. I will gladly accept criticism so that I may apply it on my next artworks and be able to improve myself. Thank you so much. 😊 That would be all, my fellow steemians. Keep on steeming! Keep ulogging. 😊💕
