Hello Sketchbook community, today I made a portrait inspired by darkness, I wanted this portrait to have something different in the eyes, since I usually make them white or colored and realistic, this time I wanted to make them with black painting completely all the black eye , drawing a kind of sea where she floats and her black tears fall from her face into the sea, I also found it interesting to add a little orange light but very slight, this is a simple portrait without too many details but I like the vibes it has.
I started by capturing my idea in the sketch and then applying the colors, I chose warm skin tones, in a new layer I mixed these tones creating the skin and the details of the face, but this time I wanted a less elaborate texture and a little more rustic, for the hair place a desaturated brown base.
I detailed her eyebrows, eyelashes and I began to paint the background with dark brown, with a lighter brown I made details in the water and in the hair, thus giving a little more shape, I painted a kind of black tears falling from her eyes towards the water, and shine a soft orange light above and on the part of the skin where that light would bounce off.
Finally I darkened her face a bit to give it a better finish and made some light and tonal adjustments to the whole drawing.
