Deep inside
Good evening friends.
Today I was in the mood to make a drawing, it's been several days since I did a “free” drawing since I've been more focused on drawing game characters, however, I always like to continue with my drawings, today I wanted to make an upside down portrait that simulates being submerged in water with a reddish hue, this time I wanted to make the eyes realistic but at the same time with a look that does not seem so real, I do not know how to explain it, but I love the eyes in this drawing, I used a color palette that I have used very few times where I mix a little pink,red, beige and green which is a combination that in the end is quite good and gives a different aesthetic to any drawing, I hope you like.
I made my sketch and started to paint, I added a bluish gray background color because at first I thought to make the water of this tone, then I started to paint the skin using browns, pinks and greens in a desaturated mode and adding the lights and shadows, then I added a new layer where I added more colors giving shape completely to the face, neck and chest, I started to mix these colors until I left a skin with soft texture, I detailed the nose, eyes and lips very carefully and then I took care of the hair, for all this drawing I used a diffuse brush to help me to give that realistic effect and at the same time soft and unfocused, I painted the hair with dark brown and then I added some light reflections.
I wanted to add more color to the face adding some reddish tones around the eyes and also drawing a kind of blood marks from the eyes to the forehead, for this point I thought to dye the water a soft red, then I added highlights to give it more realism as well as in some areas of the face that I wanted to highlight, to finish as always, I made an edition of the image and I liked the idea of making it look a little darker, so I modified the exposure, lights, saturation and contrast.
