… in Illustrator.
Step 1
First, place a high-contrasted image (high-key image, in this case my model Iva) into Illustrator work area.
Step 2
There is a bunch of tracing software and plug-ins out there, but for this example I decided to do tracing manually with pencil tool.
Step 3
Use your imagination, draw something that you imagine, not just what you see.
Step 4
In order to get a right side of the face copy+paste left half, mirror and join to get the full picture, and then draw an oval shape around.
Step 5
Make some basic elements like simple flowers, leaves, circles and stains.
Step 6
On the other hand, if you need this illustration for any purposes and don’t want to bother going through all this then get it for 1$ at Shutterstock.
