"Side Eye." Finished tonight. I decided to keep most of the image in shades of grey and just color his face. That warm brown looks, to my eyes, really interesting against the grey background and blacks. The highlights in purple was a last minute change that I think makes them more interesting. Please click on this as the white background is overwhelming it and making it hard to see.

 It was a busy day off but I managed to get started on another portrait. I haven't done that many of these this year, and most of them are selfies. This is Ian, whom I've done twice before. He's giving us the side eye. The contrast of the highlights and mid tones is too high, but I'll fix that in color.

I've been trying to work on the look for the next track, trying to get out of my head a bit. I came across an artist in Instagram who does some amazing things with figures, kind of suggesting anatomy but ignoring its boundaries as well. So, here are some early sketches.
