MY FIRST FANART DISPLAY IN AN EVENT

Organized by Jihoon Fairies

My first self-made fan art of Park Jihoon of Treasure. Jihoon is a K-pop idol under YG Entertainment. He is born in March 14, 2000. He debuted in Treasure since 2020. My artwork, It was displayed during March 10, 2024, Sunday for his birthday celebration. I draw this art as a gift for Jihoon. It's my way of showing love and support to one of my favorite K-pop artist. He also motivates me to practice my skills and talent in making arts. My skills within a known universe. I'm so glad to share it with other K-pop fans. I also want to share how to digital draw a person. The application that I’m using to draw is Ibis Paint X and I’m just using my cellphone and fingers to draw. I’m not experienced to Stylus pen because I find it hard to use.

 

 

Here’s the step on how to digital draw a person:

1. Find  Reference: Find a reference. Clearer image are much better because of the details and it will not be hard to copy the details.

2. Outline: Start by creating an outline of the idol's body and face using a pen. Add a layer and outline the other details like accessories. Sometimes I am not sketching so I do the outline already. You can also trace the reference image if you have a hard time drawing it.

3. Features: Use your reference images to add more detail to the sketch. The more detailed, the better.

4. Add more Details: Add the idol's hair and clothing based on the reference images. Pay attention to the hairstyle and accessories. You can also change the details or add some accessories based on what you want.

5. Coloring: Create a new layer underneath the outline layer for coloring. Use eye dropper to copy the color of the reference image. You can change the colors if you want too. Add shadows and blend the colors and details so it looks similar to the real photo.

6. Highlights: Add highlights to give your drawing. Create new layers above the main color layer. 

7. Final Touches: Once you're satisfied with the shading and highlights you can add more design and details to the drawing.

8. Background (Optional): You can add a background but keep it simple so it doesn't distract from the main drawing or character.

9. Save: Once you're finished, save your drawing. You can also share it to your friends and family.

 

I want to show my appreciation to the organizers and to the Teume’s or fans that appreciate and praised my artwork.

Thank you so much Jihoon Fairies for making my dreams come true. I cried at the venue because it's such a honor to be called an artist. Thank you to the person who comforted me and hugged me at the venue. Thank you to all people who supported me at the start until the end. I still can’t believed that many people loves my artwork even though it is simple. Thank you so much everyone!
