  • Explore various shading techniques to add depth and realism to the portrait. Try using hatching, cross-hatching, or stippling to create shadows and facial contours.

  • Pay attention to details, such as highlights in the eyes or subtle color changes in skin tones, to give the portrait a more lifelike appearance.
  • Utilize different coloring tools like colored pencils, markers, or watercolors, and don't be afraid to mix them to create interesting combinations and effects.
