Hello Everyone.
How are you all?
Today, I'm here to share another one of my fan-art digital drawings of splinterlands. And today, I bring you the drawing of Lyanna Natura. Her beauty really amazes me and this is the second time I'm drawing her. I'm personally a fan of nature and her character represents it perfectly. The True Daughter of Nature. I drew the first one by hand using colored pencils, like we draw in the traditional way. And I thought of drawing it again in another way with my new digital drawing tools and so here I am. And for the first time, I created a digital drawing using my mobile phone. Using the mobile version of ibis paint. I was trying out how can I do if I draw on my phone. I was used to drawing with my graphics tablet and pen, this was a whole new experience for me.
I'm sharing this draw to participate in the weekly art contest arranged by @splinterlands. Thanks a lot for arranging this contest for us, I'll attach the link to the contest at the end of my post. Please check it out if you feel interested. Now let me share my drawing and the steps of it serially.
My Drawing

First of all, I drew the figure structure of the drawing. I kept her character calm, simple, and beautiful. I had this plan in my mind and started the process that way. Drawing on this small mobile screen was a tough job for me. I'm actually out of the home and don't have my laptop or tablet with me. Otherwise, I would use those tools to draw. It was quite hard to keep the lines straight while drawing by finger. It was kind of hiding the lines from my vision. It took many trials and longer than I expected, but I did it.
Then I created the background behind her. First I used light and deep green colored brushes to draw the blurry green effect and then used black color on it to make it look like a deep forest. And then I drew the flowers and leaves. After that, I started working on her skin tone. Using a smooth texture brush with mid transparency.
I used the same color on her whole body. But using a different brush and color on her hair. And to draw the strokes on her hair I used a hard brush tool. It was all primary colors. The finishing part is way ahead. But, I completed her eyes in this step.
Then I started doing the finalizing steps on her face and body skin tone. To do this I used transparent white brush, deep colors, and light brushes to create the body curves and shades. And after completing this part, I started working on her dress.
After the last step, the work was almost done. Just needed some final touches and it's ready to go. I did those in this last step. As the main work, I just added the leaves on her waist. And tried to make her lower body and hand blurry to keep the focus on her face.

Thanks to @leeendah I got the idea. I did in my own way but, while I was looking the works of others in the contest posts randomly, it was her Post that inspired me to draw Lyanna Natura again and I took the drawing inspiration from her work too.
I really hope that you liked my drawing and enjoyed reading my post. It took me a lot of time to complete and it was a completely new experience just a bitter one. But, I'll be happy if you liked my work. And as always I'm open to any suggestion or criticism. I always try to learn from them. And thanks to the @splinterlands team for arranging such a contest for the artists to show their skills.
