Sinking
Hello friends, happy weekend to all of you.
Recently I felt inspired to make a portrait with a surrealist touch, this time inspired by the sea and I added goldfish and a beautiful sky in the background, I like to add these elements in my portraits, it was difficult to handle this contrast of colors when painting the skin, but I like this because it helps me to understand a little better when painting, this portrait is immersed half in the sea and the other part is outside, with a nostalgic look, giving that dramatic touch that I like.
The initial sketch was simple, because I had the idea in mind but I preferred to develop it as I was painting, now my big problem was to paint the skin with two different shades, make this contrast between cold and warm and understand well where to place the shadows and lights using different tones, I began to paint using in the upper part with a pale pink and in the lower part a pale blue, in a new layer I added more colors that would shape the face and painted the hair with brown.
I mixed the colors until I had a smooth skin and added the small details that give life to the face, with dark and light brown I made the highlights and shadows on the hair to give it movement and volume, I painted with a little black and a medium opacity brush some lines falling from the eyes simulating makeup that ran, in the background I painted half of blue to create the sea, then I added the sky and the fish swimming around, to give more water texture, I painted using a textured brush and a white color this kind of foam on the edge of the face, I also painted some small bubbles in the sea, to finish the drawing I added some light details and a color adjustment giving more intensity to the colors.
