Drawrch 2025 #13: Cold

An illustration of a woman looking to the left. Her face is in profile with wind-blown shoulder-length hair sweeping out from either side. She is clutching at a scarf around her neck. Her face is almost fearful, and her mouth is slightly opened showing clenched teeth. She has a pale complexion, bleached blond hair, light green eyes, and bright red lipstick. She is wearing a gray coat and a dark gray-blue scarf. The background is pink with a grungy magenta swooping in at the bottom half.

Today's Drawrch illustration took me waaay longer than I thought it was going to, but I like how it ended up.

You can see in the time-lapse that I spent a lot of time going back to the eyes, nose, and mouth to get the shape right. In the end, it does look like the reference to me, so I don't hate the effort going into it. I just lament that it took me past midnight to finish. Procreate says I spent 3 hours and 31 minutes on this. Yikes!

Anyway, this was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Syrup brush for everything else, save for the Hartz brush for background texture at the end.

The photo I used as a reference for this drawing is from SketchDaily.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
