Finished my piece of the YCH! If approved I will post it on other social media I think on friday? Anyway, I'm really happy with this piece I hope you guys enjoy it as well. I used to have a time I picked bold colors on drawings without a bg, trying that once again! makes it fun :D

Thank you! And I’m glad you like it and noticed I try to draw more dynamic poses 😊 I sometimes use a blueish color to give more depth to the hair but other than that the layers are “normal” layers !

Welcome back from your holiday! I think Karen turned out very nicely and that the bold magenta background really makes her 'pop'. 🥰 I think the bold background works especially well in this case because her base colors are dominated by her pale skin and blond hair, which take up much of the illustration. I would imagine that finding the right color would be far more challenging for more base color-diverse characters, such as Sakuna. I am still in awe as to how you manage voluminous hair so effectively and make it look so good, even with your years of drawing experience. Also, I am really enjoying your other bold artist tendency toward using arguably much more dynamic poses for art pieces following your 'Poppy' illustration. Such poses do not look easy to draw, but they do look like fun regardless. I do have one small art question about this piece. For Karen's hair, I see from your previous post that Karen's hair base colors differ in shaded and non-shaded regions. Other than color selections, did you apply any layer techniques, such as 'multiply', to achieve the shadowed and non-shadowed hair effects?
