Plady and foxy
i love my childhood bestie we are almost the same and could pass as sisters. We have our unique quirks even if a lot of times she comes off more timid in the art she really isn’t . Kinda did this in my old school style from high school because it seemed to fit this image. Colored with prisma and arteza pencils .#fyp #art #sketchbookdrawings #coloredpencils
Creating art inspired by close friendships adds a meaningful layer to the creative process. Using colored pencils like Prisma and Arteza allows for vibrant yet subtle shades, perfect for highlighting the delicate nuances of personality seen in close friends or childhood companions. When working in an old school style, I often find myself recalling the expressive details and emotions we experienced during high school years. This style lends a nostalgic feel that resonates with anyone reflecting on their youth or special connections. Personally, capturing the essence of my best friend—someone so much like a sister—helped me convey her quiet strength and unique personality despite her sometimes timid exterior. Such portraits remind me why art is more than just visuals; it's about storytelling and preserving moments. For those aspiring to try this style, I recommend layering colors gently with pencils, blending softly to achieve depth, and embracing the imperfection that illustrates individuality. Sketchbook drawings, especially with colored pencils, offer a flexible medium for experimenting with textures and tones. Overall, sharing this piece is a celebration of friendship, artistic growth, and the joy of revisiting cherished memories through a creative lens.
