Today I used the title of a song that I like from Bad Omens because I feel that it represents this drawing, today in spite of having a quite complicated day, I managed to sit down to draw for a while, I had this idea in mind, I love to make portraits with that effect of “fading” simulating real painting, although sometimes I feel that it lacks something more, maybe some time to work which lately is very hard for me to get, but I liked the final result, although to get to it I had to make many changes especially in the hair, this head position in which I worked was quite difficult and I had to redraw the hair several times, I hope you like it.
I made my sketch, I was a little bit doubtful about placing the hair with bangs and also I didn't know very well in which position to place it, but I thought about worrying about that later, so I started to paint the skin using very pale tones among them browns, pinks and cream, in a new layer I added more colors to give better shape to the face, at first I wanted to make blue eyes, but then I thought about leaving them white, I started to mix the skin tones leaving a soft and more realistic finish.
Although I wanted to leave the skin soft, I also left it with some texture, I used a brush with chalk texture and with a high opacity to not mix the colors too much and leave that brushstroke effect, at this point came my worst nightmare, I had to redesign the hair several times until I got a style that I liked, I painted with brown color and then I added a few highlights with light brown, for the background I used a dark blue desaturated color and then I wanted to darken a little more the skin, I played with layer effects to get to see a skin more according to the background, I painted the eyelashes and eyebrows, then I started to give more color details to the face and of course, add that dripping paint effect mixing the skin tones with black, I finished editing the image increasing the saturation, contrast and color, besides adding some lights in areas of the face that I wanted to highlight.
