Drawrch 2025 #17: Tilted

An illustration of a woman looking at the viewer with her head tilted back and to the side a bit. The woman has a light, but tanned complexion, pink lips, brown eyes, and brown hair with dark roots and light tips. Her hair is tied back behind her head, but many strands are loose. She has a small stud earring in her visible ear and a necklace. Her shoulders are exposed, and the strap of a white bathing suit goes up around her neck. Part of her face is in slight shadow, which transitions from a red to orange to blue from right to left. The background is a light turquoise that fades to white at the bottom.

I started drawing today's Drawrch illustration thinking I would make it a little more cartoony, sort of like #10 Night Walk from a week ago.

I couldn't really find the right angles to make the proportions fit that style though, so I opted to just make the sketch a little more realistic and then put the image in a less realistic style. The brush I used was thicker than usual, and I like the effect it produced - almost like a physical art print.

This was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Soft air brush for shading, and the Syrup brush for linework and everything else.

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:
