INTRODUCTION It might sound complicated or difficult, but when you break it down, creating a photorealistic portrait can be relatively easy, and throughout this book my goal is to show you just how easy it can be by advising you on tools and materials, providing helpful hints and techniques, and guiding you with easy-to-follow, step-by-step tutorials so that you can create portraits that you, your family and friends, or even customers will treasure for a lifetime. Read more Steps from Project 4: Developing Skin Tones Start with white and mark the eyes highlights and sclera. Remember that the sclera is rarely pure white; in this case, the whites are very bright with no other apparent color. I recommend using an opaque white, such as (CDL) White, and a heavy hand to fill in all the white areas, including the two highlights in the middle of the pupil. Then use (FC) Black to draw the darkest sections around the eye. Use (FC) Black to draw the outline around the eye and add the lash reflections on the blue highlight, pressing more firmly at the base of the lashes and then lifting off as the reflections taper to a fine line. To brighten the whites of the eyes and highlights, use a fine, barely damp watercolor brush to lift some pigment from the tip of a white Generals Scribe-All pencil, and paint this onto the sclera to make the iris opaque. This model has lovely rich skin tones, but if youre working on a plum surface, you need to use brighter colors than you might use on white to ensure that these skin tones glow. Render the golden yellow at the top left of the eye using (CDP) Apricot and a pressure of P3 to P4.

Moving to the left, continue applying all the colors used so far to fill in the forehead. Use light, circular strokes at first and adjust the hues as needed; then press more heavily so that the underlying tooth disappears. As you move up the forehead, introduce (CDL) Burnt Sienna 10% and then, as you move to the upper right, bring in some grayish tones with (FC) Warm Grey III. Near the very top of the head, bring in some pinkish hues with (FC) Medium Flesh. Light shining through the scarf leaves little specks of white light on the face; use (FC) White with a fairly sharp tip to draw all the tiny dashes. Im not too exact in my placement of these marks, but I try to make the lines of dashes flow in the same direction as they do on the reference. For dashes that will be covered in color again, use a pressure of P2 to P3. For areas where the dashes will be a nice, bright white, use a pressure of P5 to resist any color that will be overlaid. Fill in the rest of the shadows down the left, applying the same colors used at the top of the head, adding (CDP) Mauve for some purple tone in the shadow just to the right of the highlighted area of the forehead. As you move down, add reddish shading to the right of the eyebrow with (CDP) Ruby Red. Read more
