ULTIMATE BEGINNERS GUIDE – Digital Portrait Painting

46 48



DIGITAL ART BEGINNERS GUIDE – This is the ultimate beginners tutorial painting a digital portrait. I worked in Photoshop, using a Wacom drawing tablet. This tutorial also applies to other digital painting software. I used an Adobe stock photo for this painting.

Watch the BRAND NEW Ultimate Beginners Guide to Digital Portrait Painting:
PART 1:
PART 2:

In this tutorial I’ll show you how you can ‘cheat’ a bit and skip the initial sketching fase by tracing a photo. It’s a great way to practice your painting skills. Besides, it might encourage you a bit and keep you motivated.

In this video I’ll show you the process from sketch to finished painting and tell you about the techniques I’m using.

If you have any questions about the techniques, let me know!

    Do you have any suggestions on screen recording software? I love the quality of your videos. It would aid a lot in my speedpaintings. Mine seem to have lower quality since I'm using chronolapse!
