David Downton, Illustrator, London

Description

This is a fashion illustration featuring a woman with dramatic makeup. She has a black decorative accessory covering half of her face and a black high neck accessory. The woman's face is rendered with grey and white shading. Her lips are barely visible. The illustration is done in black and white, with a few light blue accents around the eyes. The style appears to be a freehand sketch. The background is plain white. The lines are expressive, with a sense of motion. The lighting is soft, accentuating the highlights and shadows on the woman's face and accessory.
