My seventh illustration for Drawrch, and the last for the first week - whew!
I started working on this one with the intent to just scribble some lines to layer values and get it done quick, but then I got caught up in painting it and next thing I knew, I'd been working for over an hour. It's not the best portrait I've ever done, but for not having done a portrait in probably 20+ years (and the first one I've done in Procreate) I don't think it's too bad.
The proportions are a little off... the eyes are too big and the mouth is too small. It was good practice, anyway.
I used varying sizes of the Parapuna brush for everything but the underlying sketch. The image was a random image from SketchDaily.
