Lighting practice

Lighting practice - student project

Testing the different lighting effects was a lot of fun and I plan to do this exercise in the future as well, whenever I can't think of something to draw. The dark blue and purple shadow ones were the most dramatic and fun ones, so I chose a similar setup for my final project as well.

I'm not happy with the overall look and level of details of the portrait as a whole, but the lighting practice was very useful and mixing the right colours for it was a lot of fun. Next step for the future: learn to use it properly on the hair as well.
