Hello friends, today I am joining with a picture which is a graphic style, we are using the technique of a portrait of a pet, a breed of pit bull, a small baby, maybe two months old. I don't know about you but I really enjoy drawing animals both in graphic style and in painterly style enjoy the process I hope you like it
First I will present you the final result the painting in all its uniqueness and then I will show you the process of the painting one by one how I do everything I also draw with graphic pencils and pastel colors
The first step in drawing is to choose the appropriate size and the canvas on which to draw. For this purpose, I used a special cadastron sheet on which to draw with special graphic pencils and then achieve the desired graphic effect.
We specify the best picture of the puppy that I will draw, in principle I always ask my clients to select the picture with the best quality so that I can recreate life as much as possible in the picture I make for the person. After we have chosen the best photo, I start preparing the materials by cutting the cardboard to size, this cardboard is 50 by 50 cm, a pure white sheet on which I start to draw a first sketch with a soft pencil like two B.
I make the best possible perspective in the painting by interposing the portrait centrally from all ends of the space
After I am sure that the perspective is as correct as possible, I start making light shadows with harder pencils like 3b and four b for the light light shadows I use these A pencils for the darker light shadows I use seven b and six b
After I'm done with the light detail I start shaping from the puppy's bangs with the harder pencils to tell you the truth Maybe I went a bit overboard with the dark shadows because such a small creature as a two month old baby puppy is a bit strange to me to have such a bad look as you can see on the picture but Yes it's a pit bull breed I love these breeds a lot I hope you love them too because people say they're bad but actually These are the puppies with the biggest hearts that's why they're The example to never judge by looks But get to know the person or the animal within by giving it a chance to prove itself
By making the light shadows with graphic pencils and here I will admit this time I decided to experiment with a new art style and a New mixed technique using pastel pencils that are specially adapted for graphics to achieve the most picturesque effect but with pencils instead of tempera paints
To tell you the truth, I'm a little scared when I decide to experiment and challenge myself. When I go outside my comfort zone. When I try a new technique. Because honestly I don't know what will happen and I'm one of those people who are perfectionists and if something doesn't work out get i'm getting sad but maybe this painting turned out pretty well because maybe it's when we challenge ourselves that our best works of art come out
Here I will upload a photo also in a slightly more distant version, in which I think that when we look at the paintings from a distance rather than staring at them in detail, sometimes it is much more beautiful to look at things from the wider aspect than to stare at the most the small detail is simply more beautiful and easier for me too. To be honest, it was a bit difficult for me to convince myself of this, but over time I humbled myself and decided not to work so much on the detail, but to look at things from a distant perspective. I'm also taking a picture of him from this angle so you can see the picture I'm drawing from, I did my best to get the most realistic look possible of this lovely little puppy I hope it worked out.After I finish painting the picture, I order a frame that is chosen by the customer Or if they trust me and order according to my choices and combine the colors of the picture with the colors of the frame as well as the material that I personally prefer to be wood.
After I finish the painting and put it in a frame and maybe this is your full potential here I am and the artist of the work congratulated I wish you a lot of creativity and love
Bye bye
