The steps of how I created a portrait using the software Krita.
# Hello Hivians

---
Hope you are all doing well on this lovely Sunday. In this post, I will be showing you how I created a portrait using **Krita.**

This is the Portrait drawing of @nalitoss

---
![6.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/apprentice001/UVgF0LiV-6.jpg)

---

## How did I draw this:

---

I used the drawing table **Huion h610 pro v2** 

![P2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/apprentice001/ZkXRutdI-P2.jpg)

This is the first drawing tablet I bought, it was quite affordable and I have been using it since I started digital art which is quite a few years now. 

---
## Here are the steps to create the portrait

---
## Step 1: Rough Sketch

---

![1.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/apprentice001/1lJIRkh5-1.jpg)

This steps does not need to be too detailed, but for this one I spent a bit more time as I felt it would then be simpler to add on the color.

---
## Step 2: Put in the Base Colors

---

![3.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/apprentice001/pkdrw7cJ-3.jpg)
This step is really to establish the base colors and to make sure that the basic tones and shadows are also considered in the drawing. It may not look like it is going anyway at this point, but refinement will occur later. You need a good foundation first. 

---
## Step 3: Refinement

---
![4.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/apprentice001/5S7kSL9o-4.jpg)

This takes the longest out of all the steps. This is where I smooth the colors and also add lots of details to the hair.

---
## Step 4: Adding Highlights

---
![5.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/apprentice001/p9YFgvhD-5.jpg)
This is where I make certain parts brighter and certain parts darker - adjusting the tones to enhance the portrait. Now all is missing is just the background.

---

## Step 5: Adding the background

---

![6.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/apprentice001/zi7M9PdZ-6.jpg)
And with the background, this is done. I made the background slightly blurred so that the focal point is on the person.

**Hope you enjoyed the post.

Have a wonderful day!**

Hello Friend @apprentice001

I really like your work, although I don't quite understand how you do it. Maybe you could be more specific in the details and put in more steps, to better understand.

A hug

That is amazing! 
I have that same graphics tablet. I love it, though I'm nowhere near as talented as you are with the pen and brush. Keep it up! Thanks for sharing it with us.
