PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK # 062 "SHAKIRA" en grafitos

in WORLD OF XPILAR3 years ago
A big greeting to all, today I join the contest of the friend @axeman, The World of XPILAR - PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK # 062 - this time I want to share this work of art, where I make a portrait using as a reference to the great Colombian singer and songwriter "Shakira", who with her great successes, spectacular dances and staging, captivates us every day more, here I use the graphite pencil technique, this chiaroscuro technique is monochromatic, we can make works that have that artistic nuance, in this work we observe the soft nuances, lighting, depth and volume, highlighting with a dark and strong contrast to give it more vision and realism.


Un gran saludo a todos, hoy me integro al concurso del amigo @axeman, The World of XPILAR - PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK #062 - en esta oportunidad quiero compartir este trabajo de arte, en donde realizo un retrato usando como referencia a la gran cantante y compositora colombiana "Shakira", que con sus grandes exitos, espectaculares bailes y puestas en escena, nos cautiva cada dia mas, aquí utilice la técnica de lápiz de grafito, esta técnica del claroscuro es monocromática, podemos realizar trabajos que tengan ese matiz artístico, en esta obra observamos los matices suaves, iluminación, profundidad y volumen, resaltando con un contraste oscuro y fuerte para darle mas visión y realismo.

Step 1


I make the sketch with the Hb-2 graphite pencil, it is very light and can be replaced by other dark tones, without leaving important traces that could ruin the portrait-style drawing.


Realizo el boceto con el lápiz de grafito Hb-2 es muy claro y se puede sustituir por otros tonos oscuros, sin dejar rastros importantes que puedan arruinar el dibujo al estilo de retrato.









Step 2


This portrait is in an almost full profile position, we can see very dark tones and areas very clearly, there is a lot of contrast, this effect is positive if we have graphite pencils with dark tones such as (B-6) (B -9 ) the patterns of lights and shadows are very visible here, you also have to know how to locate the elements that make up the figure.


Este retrato podemos observar tonos muy oscuros y zonas con mucha claridad, hay mucho constraste, este efecto es positivo si tenemos los lapices de grafitos con tonalidades oscuras tales como (B-6 ) (B -9) los patrones de luces y sombras son muy visibles aqui, también hay que saber ubicar los elementos que componen la figura.





When obtaining the first light layer of the drawing, I focus my attention on giving a new layer this time darker, this will allow me to give the necessary contrast for this work, in the intermediate places of the face, I am mixing the different types of graphite, to give that realistic appearance of lighting and contrasts.

Al obtener la primera capa clara del dibujo, enfoco mi atención en dar una nueva capa esta vez mas oscura, esto me permitirá dar el contraste necesario para este trabajo, en los lugares intermedio del rostro, voy mezclando los diferentes tipos de grafitos, para dar esa apariencia realista de iluminación y contrastes.




Already in this step we have almost 80% of the drawing done work with the pencil (b-9) that will give strength to very dark shadows and those places where dark tones predominate, the contrast will give the appearance of volume, depth and realism.


Ya en este paso tenemos casi un 80 % del dibujo realizado trabajo con el lapiz (b-9) que le dara fuerza a las sombras muy oscuras y a esos lugares en donde predomina los tonos oscuros, el contraste le dara la apariencia de volumen, profundidad y realismo.

Thank you friends for your great support and for your time, I say goodbye with this thought that makes us grow more every day.

Gracias amigos por su gran apoyo y por su tiempo, me despido con este pensamiento que nos hace crecer cada día mas.


As you practice to perfection, I can't stop progressing; every drawing that one makes, every study that one paints, is a step forward

A medida que prácticas vas a la perfección, no se puede dejar de progresar, cada dibujo que uno hace, cada estudio que uno pinta, es un paso adelante
