Good evening Sketchbook.
Today I finished a drawing that I've been working on for a couple of days, actually these last weeks even though I manage to look normal I've been feeling a bit strange, every day more and more nostalgic, bored of the monotony but at the same time afraid to break the routine, it's strange, but that's how I feel, in spite of that I managed to finish this drawing because I feel that it represents me very well at this moment, this time I did some “crazy things” and I didn't want to do something too perfect, I played a lot with the finger tool that I almost never use and it helped me to make that effect that I liked so much, I hope you like it.
I made my sketch and started to color the skin, I used quite desaturated tones, in a new layer I added more colors to give better shape to the face, then I mixed the colors but without detailing too much, I wanted to keep that rustic painting effect, for the hair I used a dark brown color and illuminated with lighter brown.
The background was hard to choose, at first I used a cream tone but after a while I didn't like it at all, I checked different colors until I got to this desaturated olive green and I loved it, then I started to play with the finger tool spreading the colors backwards and mixing everything in a quite messy way, I added highlights to the eyes nose and lips, I also made a color adjustment giving a little more saturation to the skin, I also thought about adding a little light to the silhouette on the left side and I took a peach tone and changed the layer setting to “screen” for a little more luminous result.
