Hello friends I hope you are well, these last few days I have taken advantage of drawing an idea that was developing little by little, really my main idea did not turn out well so I decided that I would draw and in the meantime I would add the elements that I wanted to the drawing, when I started this sketch about 3 days ago, I thought of making a kind of giant rose that would have the face of a girl in the center, however this idea went wrong, I kept the face that I had already drawn and complemented it with the body, from there I started to have an idea of what I wanted, I drew a veil, a cut neck and with that I began to paint this sketch, today I just finished this drawing and I feel quite happy because I liked it a lot, I added many details that I had not thought about moment of sketching and it turned out quite cool.
I started my sketch after a failed attempt and applied the skin colors which would be quite light and saturated tones at first, this I would change later. I started to shape the face, from the eyes to the rest of the face, for her hair I had chosen a light brown tone with blonde strands but I didn't like the contrast it made with her skin, so I changed it to black.
I continued shaping the rest of the body using a diffuse brush, detail the features of the face a little more and began to paint a butterfly that would be covering her breast, on her neck I applied some shadows with purple, a small touch of yellow and red creating like this a wound.
I drew on this wound some drops of blood falling from her neck, the veil was a problem I was really going to do it in another way but it was quite difficult, I haven't done transparent fabrics for a long time so help me a little with some textured brushes, with a different brush I was painting some roses on her veil, really this part was an experiment that I ended up liking and giving me more ideas, I detailed the roses applying shadows and lights and then it occurred to me to draw small eyes inside each rose, I also tried adding some little chains tied from the roses to her veil and I quite liked how it looked.
The roses were a bit saturated compared to the drawing in general so I adjusted their saturation a bit, painted a ring on one of her fingers, I wanted very nice and bright accessories to accompany this portrait. Lately I like to add black shadow around the eyes, this type of makeup looks pretty cool, I added more details throughout the drawing such as lights and shadows and then I took care of the background, so that the whole drawing had the same lighting (since I felt that she was too light) take the layer where the drawing of the girl was and with a multiply effect apply a dark blue tone, set the opacity to 25%.
In this last stage I basically gave the last touches of light and shadow, applying exaggerated brightness where I liked it, adjusting small details like the eye veins that are on the roses, some drops on the roses that made them look a bit juicy, lights around of it red and blue.
A small approach to see the details of the face and the roses, I really liked these roses, I think I will draw them more often in new drawings, it is a bit creepy but I love it.
I hope you liked it, I tried hard to create this work, see you soon.
