A case where the colors came before the image. I saw these gold tones on dark blue with bright red in a magazine and had the idea of making a portrait with them. I’m not good at drawing people though, and I think it really shows in this. Still, I guess it’s good to try new stuff once in a while.

Illustrator brushes rarely, if ever, work well for me and to be honest I gave up on the lady rather than declaring her complete or anything.
