Learn how to create a detailed illustration inspired by Alphonse Mucha and Alex Gross and Hsiao-Ron Cheng. This extreme closeup portrait highlights facial features such as eyes, nose, lips, cheeks, jawline, and eyebrows, adding an accessory such as sunglasses, earrings, necklace, bracelet, hat, or watch. The portrait also features a disheveled look, with the location set in an urban, beach, mountain, forest, desert, or countryside setting. The portrait is illuminated in magenta and cyan colors with high contrast and sharp details.
