Latest Portrait

Here's the latest portrait! My dearest friend, Lexy. She's so gorgeous, this was a really fun one to do! Here's the finished product (I'll replace with a better photo soon) followed by some step-by-steps for those of you that were curious. I was trying out a new technique with colored pencil and turpenoid.

Here's the finished product (better photo coming soon)

This is the beginning where I get to make it look like a comic book

The hair is done section by section with lots of layering of the colored pencils and turpenoid

Almost done with the hair!

Adding fly-aways and depth to the hair

Now to add the bubbles! (Top/first image is the finished product.)
