Hello Steemians!

In this post I am going to show you an Illustration that I made about the Singer Rihanna and I will explain the procedure of how I did it and what programs I used for the Enlightenment.

A little about Rihanna

Robyn Rihanna Fenty was born in Bridgetown, Barbados, on February 20, 1988. She is a well-known singer, songwriter, model, dancer, actress, fashion designer, entrepreneur and music producer of Barbadian and American nationality.

Her musical career began when she formed a musical trio with two of her classmates in 2003. By this time, American music producer Evan Rogers was vacationing with his wife in Barbados.

A friend of Rihanna contacted his wife and told him about her. Convinced by his wife, Evan called the trio to an audition, in which Rihanna prevailed before her two companions with her voice, singing Emotion, of the band Destiny's Child, and Hero, of the singer Mariah Carey. Evan Rogers then arranged a second audition, but this time without his partners and with the presence of his mother. Pleased with what he heard, he invited Rihanna to record a demo in the United States, which was sent to different record companies.

This model went through several hands, up to rapper Jay-Z, who has just obtained the position of president and CEO of the label Def Jam. Jay-Z was only able to listen to Rihanna singing Pon de Replay to feel enthusiastic, although he had his doubts. So he called Rihanna for an audition in New York, where he convinced both Jay-Z and L.A. Reid that they wanted her in Def Jam.

Illustration

• To begin making the illustration, start making the strokes, for this use the Adobe Illustrator program.

• Start drawing your eyes, nose and mouth.

• Then I did what would be the outline of his body and his hair.

Color
• I started adding color to your body and face, use only one tone for both.

• Then paint your eyes, eyebrows, lips and hair.

Shadows and Lighting

• To create lights and shadows on your face use the Adobe Photoshop program.

• To create the lights on your face, use the Overexpose tool and I began to touch the parts I wanted to illuminate.

• To create Shadows use the Underexpose Tool and I also started to touch the parts I wanted to shade.

• To finish I just added a bit of saturation to the illustration.

Finished

Steemians, I hope you liked the Enlightenment of Rihanna, I would like you to give me suggestions about who could illustrate for the next post, greetings and successes Steemians.
