Digital art_2020. Hummingbird

Hi my friends!

In the frame of art challenge in April last year I drew some birds.
First in them was a little and beautiful tropical bird named "Hummingbird"

I find nice reference for my drawing, but I wanted to make another color of feathers of bird

Then I opened my lovest program Paint Tool SAI 2 and started...

Sketch

This time I decided to start painting with the main characters of the picture, they are so attractive

This time I decided to start painting with the main characters of the picture, they are so attractive.
At the same stage, I decide on the direction of lighting - bottom right

Searching a right forms with light

This will help show the depth of the heart of the flower and the wavy lines of the petals.

I draw my base brush Oil Brist 2

This brush can mix different colors well, and it is also convenient to apply short strokes with it, imitating bird feathers.

Highlights in the eye I drew with hard brush Ink Pen

Base picture is ready

Yes, had to line up the bird's wings

Now I want to make a background more textured

I open my drawing in Photoshop (I wrote early to sorry SAI hasn't a custom forms brushes) and drew a texture background as jungle in new layer

Then I reduced a volume of opacity for this layer and make color correction and dark vignette.

Ind I decided to make a glow of bird as a motion effect

And color correction a little

Artwork is ready!

I hope you enjoy my drawing and distract from sad thoughts.

I draw so that people look at beauty and be happy!

With Love...
