How are you dear friends, today I feel quite happy because I have finished this drawing that I started two nights ago, I liked it very much and I wanted to share it with you, I wanted to make a work that looked realistic with a nostalgic theme, representing heartbreak and suffering that comes after breaking your ties with someone you love, I think many have gone through that at some time in their life and that is exactly how I remember it, I really enjoyed painting this work, I put a lot of love into it, I wanted that the final result was amazing and in my eyes it is.
Hope you like.
Proceso/Process
I made the sketch, at first I was a little nervous because the arm had been a bit strange, apply the base color in a new layer, a beige tone, continue in the next layer adding the other tones, for the whole drawing use the diffuse brush, I used such light colors in one part of her face that sometimes it made me a little dizzy, but with a lot of patience I managed to shape this face in a couple of hours.
I continue shaping by mixing the colors that I placed as a base and creating new tones between them, I decided to make her eyes more striking and paint one eye blue and the other brown, on her mouth I drew a small kind of smile, once the face was ready I started to paint her clothes, I liked the idea of using a red tone, so first I put a quite striking red and the truth looked very ugly, so I changed to a darker red, it looks almost wine red, for the hair I choose black, it made a good contrast with her skin and clothes, I started to shape the chest and the broken heart.
With a darker wine tone I gave some shadows to the folds of the clothes, I finished painting her hand and her arm, this was the most difficult part, these hands were the most complicated hands I've ever done haha, I thought of putting makeup on her and with a hard brush some tears that were mixed with her makeup, the drawing was already quite good but a background was missing, this is where I thought of placing a background with a solid color but I did not like how it looked, so I began to experiment and little by little I achieved a background that I liked, with a gray sky and some black butterflies around it, finally I made the final touches where I would apply some details of lights and shadows, I also darkened my character a little so that it would fit better with the background.
De verdad estoy muy contenta con el resultado, normalmente siempre veo defectos en mis dibujos y aunque este los tenga, no me importa jajaja creo que se ha convertido en mi dibujo favorito hasta ahora, ya tengo un nuevo fondo de pantalla para mi celular 😂
I'm really happy with the result, normally I always see flaws in my drawings and even if this one has them, I don't care lol I think it's become my favorite drawing so far, I already have a new wallpaper for my cell phone 😂
