After I finished shading the figure, I used the piece of charcoal and colored darkly around the edges and parts of the body that was facing away from the bright cloth and lightly around the cloth and areas of the body surrounded by light. Before that, I added a circle of colors in the shirt, the same colors used in the cloth, to signify where the cloth is coming from: from the heart.

For shading on the shirt, I shaded diagonally from the lower left part of the shirt to the top right strap of the shirt. I started shading with grey, and began going over it with a darker blue, then a darker grey and vise versa, while making sure to having the selected areas for lighting stay light and untouched. The same applies for the skin, shading with a lighter grey and darker skin tones like tan.

With the shirt, I colored a majority of the shirt with medium tone blue, and I already started shading the shirt and skin with a medium/dark grey and light brown for the skin, along with some grey.

I first started with selecting my lightest versions of the colors I used for the ribbon When it came to the hair, I started with the lightest shade of brown and worked my way darker and towards the back of the head.

I then colored the ribbon with a selection of my brightest colors as a base. There was no pattern to it, I didn't want to have similar colors together but having it in their color family (warm and cold).

I started with coloring the smallest section of the figure, a small section showing her jeans with dark blue, I colored the side facing the cloth a lighter blue and shaded the backside with a dark grey.

This was a mix of two pieces of media: marker and charcoal. I used my own markers, the brand Copic and a small piece of charcoal to go around the figure for the darkness. I used a mix of my lightest shades of colors of reds, greens and blues with my darkest greys, blues and browns.

With the design in mind, I took a large sheet of paper and sketched the drawing. I drew a border around it, so I knew where I could stop and where I would cut it when I was done.

I used the effect called Chiaroscuro, where it enunciates on lighting and shadows. I had the cloth glow with light, and everything surrounding the figure be noting but darkness. The cloth is what is illuminating the person. When it came to using the markers, I always started with the lightest color and worked to the darkest, and then that was done, I would refine the colors, go over it if needed, to get rid of any streakiness.

The plan was for it to be a picture, showing an expression of my inner self. What it is suppose to signify is in a dark place, surrounded by shadows, where I'm alone. I let out what is inside me, and it begins to fill up the room with bright colors. I'm letting out warmth, colors representing emotion. Anger, happiness, sadness, love, calmness, and envy. It represents how what I am can fill a room with light when it's cold and dark.

I started with a basic sketch. I didn't start with a collection since I already knew what I wanted for my final project.
