Blue veins
Sometimes after spending so many days non-stop drawing and doing many details, I get stressed and want to do something simpler, but the ideas go crazy and I start with an idea that ends up being modified in the process, this was the case of this illustration that I present to you today, I really changed a lot of things, but I kept the fact that I wanted to do something simple because recently I felt pretty bad in my hands.
I have always liked cold tones like blue and purple, sometimes it bothers me to repeat the colors but I can't help it, in fact I handled this drawing at first with a quite normal skin color palette, in the end I decided to completely change the colors hahaha, it's not one of my favorites but I think the contrast of blues and the brightness that I managed to highlight look good.
My initial sketch would be a portrait of a girl with a hat and hair tied back, I thought I would add other things to it as the drawing developed, I applied a palette of skin colors shaping it with lights and shadows, in new layers I began to mix these tones to give smooth skin.
I painted her hair brown and some strands in blue, from that moment I thought that maybe if I gave a blue hue to the whole drawing it would look a little better, I drew some accessories and makeup and then made the color change, I put it a little dark to then paint this kind of "veins" light blue.
In a new layer with the color adjustment on "screen" highlight the blue veins, and highlighting parts of his face, eyes and jewelry.

the cold dark version definitely looks better mostly because of those glowing veins...
