"Olive" colored pencil on toned paper
Some of the steps:
Steps one and two were on the same day.
I was excited after one session so I came back to it a couple hours later.
This was the second day. Same thing -
I was excited so I went ahead and did the finishing touches (top image).
Tip:
I drew the image freehand. When it looked like this, I dropped it into Procreate in a layer over the top of the photo. Then, I reduced the opacity until I could see both images at once. I was able to see where I had gotten it wrong. The one you see above is actually after I corrected it. I had drawn the eye on the right side way too low. There were also little adjustments here and there, but I was pretty happy with myself for getting so close. As it's colored pencil, if I get something wrong from the beginning, there's not much I can do about it later.
Thanks for stopping by!
