Hello beautiful community, today I present a drawing of a simple portrait with a pretty nice touch of light, I chose a butterfly as a light source, I like butterflies a lot because for me they reflect magic, fantasy and beauty.
Use warm colors since I like to practice sometimes with these tones even though sometimes I don't feel comfortable working with that palette, something that I really liked about this drawing is the eyes, which seem somewhat crystalline and realistic, I hope they they like it.
Proceso/Process
I made the sketch and chose the tones to use, these would be warm and vivid colors, I began to place the light tones very close to the face and the dark ones to the opposite side, in a new layer I added more tones creating the shape of the face a little more defined, I still felt that details were missing so in a new layer I continued applying more tones.
Now I started to blend the colors to make a soft skin, for the hair use a dark red base color and add light red highlights near the face following the light source, apply more light on the nose and eyes, then place a butterfly I made her glow by playing around with the layer settings and blending mode, I also applied a lot of yellow light bouncing off her face.
