I used a reference photo to draw this digital illustration of my husband's grandmother. I chose a realism approach for this one that resembled a black and white photo. I wanted a smooth, soft appearance for her skin and focused on the contrast that the light source cast on her face. I also included the light glares on her glasses lenses for an added touch.
