A broken soul
What’s up friends, I hope you are very well.
Today I want to share with you a new portrait I made yesterday, I liked it a lot because despite being simple, it has details that make it look semi realistic, the white eyes I always like a lot and I noticed that I had some time without using them, so I applied them this time, they give that touch of "emptiness" that I was looking for for this portrait, I tried to give a lot of details to the face to create that almost realism that I like so much, I drew some small hearts with cracks in the cheeks, this was improvised but I liked the idea.
Lately I find it hard to think of some ideas so I prefer to make a simple sketch and add things as I paint, for this reason I said that the hearts on the cheek were improvised, after having the sketch ready, I added a new layer where I would begin to paint using the diffuse brush, with which I placed the light and dark colors to guide me where the lights and shadows would go, after this I added again another layer where I started to fill with a harder brush and many more colors that would outline much better the face, I changed to another brush with texture to mix the colors of the face and then review with the diffuse brush to create that softer skin without so much texture, for the hair I used a dark brown base, because i love how this color look with this light skin.
I finished painting the hand and painted the hair with light brown to give it texture and movement, I darkened a little the portrait and then I painted these hearts that simulate a hole, I painted very small irregular lines around to make that effect of cracks, I added some highlights to the face without exaggerating too much because this time I wanted a more natural result, so I had to leave aside that obsession to fill everything with brightness, for the background I chose to do something simple and with colors similar to those of the drawing, so I created a two-tone gradient.
