digital drawing of leona from my original post-apocalyptic project, landfill. she is a thin white wonan with curly ash-blonde hair, posing in a shimmering white dress. you might get the sense she doesn’t usually dress like this

protip for artists who struggle with contrast and saturation: adding an adjustment layer with a sweet little S-curve like this will make your colors pop without destructively altering the art itself 🥂
photoshop curves adjustment window with two control points to create a subtle S-curve. you’re ever-so-slightly pushing the highlights brighter/more saturated while darkening and desaturating the shadows
