Bouguereau style digital painting part 1

I’m always on the hunt for new tutorials, and I especially love watching other artists work. Every day more and more artists are putting up video tutorials and painting demos on YouTube, and I thought I’d start sharing with you guys the ones that I find especially interesting or enlightening.

This Bougereau Style painting by Raffy Dematawaran was interesting to me for a couple reasons. First, I’m a big fan of the old masters, so the style was an instant draw. But watch especially closely the way the artist uses colors to draw and shade with. Purple to draw the lids of the eyes, a greenish brown for some shadows, etc.
