Last light
If there is something I love are the cold tones and especially taken to a portrait where you can play even more with these colors, although sometimes it is difficult it is not impossible, you just have to be clear where to place the dark and light tones of these colors we choose, this time I worked with many pinks, purples and blues to create this face where I wanted to give many details to have a result as realistic as possible, this type of drawing are the ones I enjoy the most, they bring me a lot of peace to paint them, it excites me to paint those huge eyes and thick lips, give life and feeling to each work, in this particular I wanted to make a light effect, a light that reflects on the face but that simulates a light that is projected through a glass or perhaps a stained glass window, I hope you like it.
First I made the sketch, then I chose the colors, as I said there were many shades of pink, blue and purple, I also added an extra color that I really did not know if it would work which was white, I tried to do since I started to deposit the colors, to make this effect of light reflection on the face was costing me a lot because I felt that it was going to be like wounds on the face instead of light reflections, I was getting a little frustrated, but I decided to continue, then in another layer I placed more shades and then proceeded to mix all the colors and create a smoother skin, when I started to mix everything I realized that the light effect was showing better, then I painted the eyebrows and eyelashes and then continue painting the shirt, for which I chose a very dark blue.
Then I painted the hair, I chose to make it purple and the reason is that I tried several colors and they looked horrible, the purple combined much more was more harmonious with the whole scene compared to a brown, blue, green or pink, I changed the background to a desaturated dark purple and then I added some shadows, then I applied a layer of lights to illuminate the eyes, mouth and nose, I also wanted to use a brush that gives a glitter effect and I placed it under the eyes, it looked very nice, to finish I edited the image adjusting a little the intensity of all the colors and making darker all the drawing.
