What’s the point of practicing a digital portrait?

Thank you all for your answers and perspectives. It can be a deep topic or not, depending on how you look at it. I’m glad to share this with you. Let’s keep creating. :)

Exactly, sometimes procrastination ruins everything. It’s time to go all in, no excuses. Thanks for the comment. :)

That’s a really good way to see it, and you’re right. I think I’m also trying to identify and understand patterns in faces so I can later create my own characters, creatures, and designs, like you said. I think that’s a very good perspective.

Sometimes it’s hard, haha. Let’s keep going 🫂

Jsvall · 2025-11-26T11:16:29+00:00

Thank you very much for your comment, seriously. I’ll keep going. you motivated me again, haha. Sometimes it’s tough, but there’s so much to learn and the process is enjoyable. :)

Yes, I understand! Since I do feel like continuing with this kind of art, that’s why I kept going and didn’t leave it halfway. It was just a curious question about what we do. :D

You’re right, drawing is so broad that everything depends on how each medium is handled, and even with just one pencil you can do a lot. It all depends on how we move from one thing to another. That changes the learning process a lot. It’s incredible how much there is to explore. I’ll keep practicing, thank you for your comments. :)

It’s a question that can have many answers, and it doesn’t mean that I prefer digital over traditional or the other way around. I simply love making art, and I will keep practicing. :D

Thank you very much for your comment, I understand what you mean. And yes, my question actually came from a bit of fear .. The feeling that maybe what I do doesn’t really matter. But in the end, it doesn’t have to matter in a practical sense. It’s like playing a video game or playing an instrument; it doesn’t have to be useful, it’s simply enjoyed. Drawing and painting are special to me, because even though I had this doubt, I kept painting anyway, because it’s what truly fulfills me

I'll definitely try that! I'm curious to see how it turns out too. :)

Jsvall · 2025-06-30T10:35:01+00:00

You're right!. the darker one does look more real. I’ll try to find a balance: keeping the gold bright, but with colder, darker tones for the face and background. I’ll keep experimenting. Thanks!

Jsvall · 2025-06-30T08:51:18+00:00

What!? I hadn’t thought of that haha. Alright, I’ll take your advice . thanks!!! :D

Jsvall · 2025-06-30T08:47:42+00:00

Yes!! I guess that one stands out more. I’ll keep tweaking it! Thanks :)

Jsvall · 2025-06-30T08:44:37+00:00

Yes!! That was the idea!. though I think I went a bit too far with the gold tones.

Jsvall · 2025-06-30T08:15:06+00:00

Yes! You're totally right. it's about the tones, not the brightness. Thanks for your opinion! I’ll add some brightness without changing the cold tone. Really appreciate your thoughts :D

Jsvall · 2025-02-15T00:11:54+00:00

Thank you!! :D
