This Premium Tutorial is Filled with Creative Tips

Today I’m going to be showing you how to create an elegant female portrait using complimentary colors with a backlight effect. You’ll learn several tips along the way to help enhance and flatter your female illustrations, which are comparable with many cosmetic tips!
Today we’re going to be using a this stock image provided by the wonderful Tasastock as the perfect pose for this strikingly beautiful portrait. There are two reasons why I have selected this stock image. The first being that the hair is tied away from the face, therefore making it easier for me to create my own hair style. The second is I’ll be able to show you how to create even, soft shading from a reference image where the skin colors have been distorted.
