Greetings friends, today I wanted to do a black and white portrait and this time not only because I wanted to study better the shadows and lights but also because I feel that black and white photographs and drawings bring that level of nostalgia that I like so much, today has not been a very good day for me, I have been in a very bad mood, I feel a little sad, upset and stressed so I just thought of painting something in this style to help me drain a little of these feelings, although I still feel a little bad, I was encouraged to paint it and see the final result, I hope you like it.
I made a sketch of a face and this time I wanted a face with a lot of close up, since I find it a little easier this way, I started adding dark and light grays to define where the light and dark would be, in a new layer I applied more colors to finish forming the face completely, then I started blurring and blending to have a smooth skin.
I finished giving details to the face and also to the eyes, I also blurred the neck and started to paint the hair with dark gray, then I applied some light gray highlights to give a better finish to the hair, I also added some black parts to create more volume, I added a layer where I illuminated some areas of the face and finally I painted black lines that simulate cracks and white edges to give more depth and realism.
