Happy start to the week friends.
Today something that is not very common happened to me, because I wanted to draw something colorful, with a blonde girl that I don't usually do haha, I like dark hair more but I wanted to try something different today, it occurred to me to make a simple portrait and as the drawing was developing I was coming up with some ideas to make this portrait something very colorful, I wanted to use roses and some petals attached to the face, with a palette of pink colors and a light background, the I really felt a bit strange doing all this but I liked the contrast of colors that I achieved, I hope you like it too.
I started making the sketch as I told you, I made a simple sketch without many details since I still had no idea what to do, I chose a palette of light skin tones and I began to paint the face, depositing the colors without much care and giving it more details in new layers where I was defining the features of the face much better, for the hair I used a beige base tone.
Add more details to the face and hair, creating some reflections of light and shadow on the hair to give it more naturalness, I felt that the face needed a little more color so I intensified some parts and painted this kind of blush on the cheeks, for this period I was already thinking about flowers, so I tried to draw some roses in the hair and then it occurred to me to fill part of the face with petals.
I discovered a brush with a very curious texture in my Photoshop, I tried it and I liked it to decorate the background, so I started subtracting tones from the roses and from the body to create these kinds of spots behind and also some on top of the roses to give a fading effect to the roses, with a color adjustment, I gave the image a more pink hue, I liked it a little more like that, in addition to adjusting the saturation a little.
