Art Process

Start with a sketch. I like how the hand is positioned on the hair. A very elegant hand pose for a lady. 😊 I thought she only had one braided side so I have to put one on the other side. 😅

For the lineart, I used a solid brush with different weights. To draw the hand is easy this time so lineart was a quick one.

Nexy is the base color copied from the original card. Next, on another layer on top, I worked on the shadowing. I blurred out some hard edges using the blur brush. The shadowing for the skin is a bit saturated this time to complement the color of the clothing.

I worked more on the shadowing by introducing the mid-color to blend the light and dark shadows. Added glow to the hair, eyes, and clothing using a layer mode called add glow.

Final Art

The backgroun is a gradient of pink and dark red. I used the blur and smudge brush to mix the two colors. I added some sparkles using a downloaded brush. The swirls are airbrush in hard mode.

Finished art! 💖✨
