Lifelike Portraits Using Only One Color By Talented Artist

There are so many examples of arts that can be done if you are really talented. For example, this talented artist is able to draw amazing and stunning lifelike portraits by using only one color for every portrait. This is absolutely a talent that was born with this skillful artist.

This gifted artist’s name is Derin Fletcher and she is an artist who has the ability to draw lifelike monochromatic portraits. This means that she only uses one color for every portrait that she draws. To master this talent of drawing, Derin Fletcher decided to draw a color study for herself so that she could see which shades blend well together. She did this method before she begins to start a beautiful portrait.

When she finally found which color blends well, she then will sketch the face with a colored pencil and the portraits build up from there. She then sands it with sandpaper to add some texture to the portraits. As she shades the portrait, she will give some pressure towards the portrait to create some details with it. In the end, the finished portraits would have three layers of color that match together.

These are some of the magnificent portraits that she drew:
