Happy week everyone, today I share with you this new drawing, with which I wanted to practice the lights and shadows, which in my opinion is one of the most difficult aspects of drawing when we are starting. For this I used as a reference a photo of a ballerina in black and white with many shadows and lights and I wanted to obtain a different result and apply a little color.
Feliz semana a todos, hoy les comparto este nuevo dibujo, con el cual quise practicar las luces y sombras, que en mi opinión es uno de los aspectos más difíciles del dibujo cuando estamos comenzando. Para esto use como referencia una foto de una bailarina en blanco y negro con muchas sombras y luces y quise obtener un resultado diferente y aplicar un poco de color.

The first thing is to make the sketch, which unfortunately at the moment I have to do it with the mouse which makes it a bit difficult for me, the ideal would be to have a graphics tablet.
Lo primero es hacer el boceto, que lamentablemente por el momento tengo que hacerlo con el mouse lo que se me dificulta un poco, lo ideal sería tener una tableta gráfica.
After the sketch I start to work on the shadows, starting with the general shadows and then with the more specific shadows. The next step is similar but with the Lights. I like to do the shadows and lights first because it's easier for me to give volume to the drawing.
Después del boceto empiezo a trabajar las sombras, comenzando con las sombras generales y luego con las sombras más específicas. El siguiente paso es similar pero con las Luces. Me gusta hacer primero las sombras y las luces porque me es más fácil darle volumen al dibujo.
After the lights and shadows are done, we can start coloring the drawing. It is best to do it in layers and have a layer for each part of the body.
Después de que las luces y las sombras estén listas, podemos comenzar a colorear el dibujo. Lo mejor es hacerlo por capas y tener una capa para cada parte del cuerpo.
For the background I kept the color black as in the reference photo to highlight the drawing and I added an effect that runs through the body to add more light and to be seen reflected in some parts of the body.
Para el fondo mantuve el color negro como en la foto de referencia para resaltar el dibujo y le agregué un efecto que recorre el cuerpo para agregar más luz y que se vea reflejado en algunas partes del cuerpo.
