Description This is it! I hope I helped! And if you use this, PLEASE SHOW ME YOUR WORK.

I had a lot of people over the past week ask me how I do backgrounds and shade, so I figured I'd shed the light -- I hope this helps anyone who was looking for a tutorial.

Oooh I always have a problem with backgrounds and I never thought to do them first ('cause I'm a idiot I guess) but I really wanted to get back into doing ports and this was super helpful 8D

This is by far one of my favorite portraits, by you and just in general! <3 The colors came together so beautifully.
