This is such a great drawing! Especially the use of colours of how you used them to blend the couple together

Hehe thank you for giving it another look. I know that feeling. It happens to me quite often that I give a brief look or pass over some thumbnail and afterwards find it by chance somewhere else.

Fantastic colored pencil piece! Β  The colour contrast is simply awesome, and the way they look at each other...so intense... What I like is, that this drawing is most realistic without being overdone. Exactly the right mixture of detailed work and easyness I love so much in really good colored pencil drawings!Β

DanielaIvanova In reply to mcarodga [2018-02-27 12:04:27 +0000 UTC]

Thank you, I'm really proud of it myself. I'm not sure exactly what you mean by approach, I simply laid down colors that I felt were coming through in the photo. I wanted to have different colors for the two of them but kinda complementing and reflecting off of each other. Obviously the colors are very different from the reference but I used it as a guide in a way, but pumped up and distorted through my initial color scheme idea - for example the green on her chin came from a slightly greenish shade I caught on the photo itself.Β

Thanks for answering, hearing other people's takes is useful (color is one of my biggest weaknesses) the hints of green added much to the overall work, just great to look at :]

Thank you again so much! ^^ I really enjoyed the video, the music was fantastic and your interpretation of it was fascinating. I loved the idea of a ballerina warrior When it's published I will give it a shoutout on my page. The idea of combining music and art like this is simply awesome (not just as a background but as an actual active inspiration).

You're back!! I was wondering where you'd been! Β  This piece is lovely, and your skill with colored pencils is excellent, so smooth and well-blended. I love the tinge of blue and pink in the skin tone. I've been meaning to get into colored penciling, only played with them once or twice. They're harder to work with than they seem!

Hey! SO happy to see you again <3 Two jobs, graduation, engagement and moved country, it's been rather hectic Thanks so much for the compliments. I'm still quite a beginner with colored pencils (if you look closely you might spot the part where I really screwed up!) but they're really fun. They can be frustrating, I agree, especially since different brands have very different feels to them.Β
