Transcripts

1. Introduction: Hi everyone. Do you have a passion for art and love everything cute, then you're in the right place. I miss Lacey and welcome to my class. In this class, you will learn how to draw QY breakfast foods. I've been working on line as a teacher since 2019 is my passion is teaching, which is why I obtained my master's degree in teaching. I've also spent many years building my skill and art. Like you, I also love art and everything cute. And that's why I'm super excited to be teaching you how to draw quite breakfast foods in this class, I'm going to share tips and how to create your own illustrations. These tips can be applied to almost any type of art will guide you on your art journey. During this class, you can use traditional tools or digital tools. It's your choice. We will start out by talking about what is QY. And then we'll talk about how to use a reference to create art. After that, we will learn how to identify which shapes make up our foods, how to simplify them, how to make them cubed. Then I will show you many examples using a step-by-step method. I hope this helps inspire you and also gives you an insight to my process. This class is for anyone of any age who desires to draw cute things. This class is great for beginners and it's easy to understand and simple to follow. After the instruction, we will end the class with the class project. The class project is where we will all design our own Kawhi breakfast foods. I'm super excited and I look forward to seeing you in class. So let's get started. 2. Class Project: Hi everyone and welcome back. I'm super excited to tell all of you about our class project, and I hope that all of you will be excited to try it. This is an opportunity for all of you to create something on your own. Our class project is going to be to create your own breakfast food. This could be any food or drink that you like to eat or drink for breakfast. Give you a few ideas. Some options could be a fruit cereal, oatmeal, French toast, yogurt, a bagel, a donor, a waffle, sausage, or even a combo like Aegon toast. It could also just be anything that you want. It doesn't have to be anything that I came up with. I just wanted to give some options in case you needed it. If you choose to do a food or drink that we already drew during the class, I recommend making it your own in some way. Do it from a new angle, brings something new to the illustration that we haven't seen yet. This is your chance to push yourself out of your comfort zone and show off your best work. I also recommend that you try new expressions that we haven't tried yet. This is a necessity, but I thought it could be a way to push yourself even farther. You are also welcome to share any work in progress is and share your practice pages from the class when you're ready to post, look for the green Create Project button below the video. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or you need help. I can't wait to see your class projects. See you in the next lesson. 3. Tools: Hi, welcome back. I wanted to talk to you very briefly about the tools and the software that you can use for this course. Just like I mentioned in the intro, you can use either digital tools or traditional tools, whatever works for you. I personally am going to be using a PC or a personal computer with a webcam tablet. But there are many options out there. Some options are a drawing tablet, an iPad, or traditional tools like pencil and paper. The steps are easy to follow no matter which tools you decide to use. And the instructions are focused on building the technique and skill of drawing, rather than focusing on how to use the tools themselves. As for the software in this course, I'm gonna be using Adobe Photoshop. But there are many options out there just as there are many tools out there. So it all depends on what you prefer to use. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out and ask. I look forward to seeing you in the next lesson. 4. What is Kawaii?: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson we're going to be talking about what is QY and not just about what that word means, but the characteristics found in Hawaii are, and how we're going to implement that in our own artwork. This is also going to help us answer the question on how do we make things cute. Hawaii means cute and Japanese, this where it can be used to describe many things. So one way it's commonly used is to refer to a specific type of art. This are normally has some distinguishable characteristics. You've probably seen QY art before, but may not have thought about what these characteristics are specifically being able to identify these characteristics will help us be able to recreate why are and be mindful about what we are creating. So some of these characteristics are simplicity. Child like a big head, big eyes, a small nose or no nose, and a small body. Some other features you may see our blush, simple colors and rounded shapes. Some common themes that are seen in Hawaii. People, food, animals, and everyday objects that people found in Hawaii art are often referred to as chickpeas. Chubby is a word used for a specific art style used to draw people. It also originated in Japan and it overlaps are quiet art style is they have a lot of the same features. Today, we're going to be drawing foods, specifically quite breakfast food. But talking about what characteristics are found in Kuwait are, will help us figure out what we want our food to look like. This may seem like a lot, but the important things to remember are to keep it simple and make it as cute as possible. This may not look the same for everyone as all of our interests differ. What's cute to me, may not be cute to you, and that's okay. What makes us different, makes us unique. By looking at Kuwait or online, you'll see a lot of recurring theme as mentioned above. Five, what kind of Kuwait are you like and what features you would like to implement in your own artwork. Consider sketching out some expressions that you would like to use. And consider creating a list of foods you would like to draw for your final project. If you have trouble coming up with breakfast foods or you need help with expressions, feel free to reach out and I will help you. That's the end of this lesson. And I will see you in the next lesson. See you there. 5. How to Draw From a Reference: Hi, Welcome back. Before I show you the step-by-step instructions, I would like to explain how I draw from a reference. This may seem like a no-brainer to some, but I do want to explain for those who are interested in how I build my skill as an artist, I recommend four simple steps to build your skill. One, fine images that you want to draw to learn what shapes they're made out of. Three, practice those shapes for draw without the reference. So for the first step, find the images you want to draw super important to look at other art styles you may want to draw. Not only will it inspire you, but it will also motivate you to draw. Looking at other art can also help you be mindful of what you would like to incorporate into your own art. I'm going to show you how to use stock photos. We're going to turn something that looks real into the courtyard style stock photos are free photos that you can use and you don't have to worry about copyright. There are many different sites where you can find stock photos, but sometimes they have stipulations. You always want to check and make sure that they're okay to use for what you want to use them for three sites that I really enjoy, our Pexels, Pixabay, and Unsplash. You can also consider using Pinterest. There are a lot of references on there as well, but you want to make sure that you're using the ones that aren't copyrighted. You never want to take credit for something that's not yours. Pinterest is a good place to store your stock photos in one place, either like to save the images to my computer and keep them in a folder, or I can save them to Pinterest, it's up to you. I suggest Pinterest, if you're worried about them taking up space on your computer, just download the Pinterest button and you can save any picture to a board on Pinterest. I'm going to share all of the images that I use in the scores down in the project and resources tab below the video. That way, if you want to use some for the class, you may. Okay, So once I go to the website, I search for the image that I want. For example, I may search for a muffin when I am choosing a photo, I want to consider what angle the picture is taken. If I pick an angle from above, for example, when I draw it, it may not have the effect that I want or you may not be able to even tell it's a muffin. Some angles are harder than others to. I normally choose angles from the front, but sometimes that's not possible. The pancakes, for example, I really wanted to be able to see the top of the pancakes and also the side of the pancakes. I wanted to see the top because I knew that's where I would put the face. This is just a reminder to keep that in mind when you're looking for references besides the angle, I also look for the shape. It may sound silly, but I spent a lot of time looking for a good shape. Look at this muffin versus this muffin. In my opinion, the first muffin, it looks a lot more like a traditional muffin than the second muffin. That's because the muffin overflows the cup, but we're all different. So the shape that I like may not necessarily be the shape that you like in the end. If I don't find exactly what I'm looking for, that's okay too. I can always add what I want. For example, I wanted to add a strawberry to my jam, but I couldn't find a picture that I had what I wanted. So I found an image of a strawberry. I drew it, and then I added it. And it's all about figuring out what you want it to look like and then making it happen. Our second step is to learn what shapes are made out of. What simple way you can start to learn how to break the image into shapes is by tracing. A lot of people think that tracing is cheating, but there's nothing wrong with using a reference to learn with, as long as you give credit where it's due, never take credit for someone else's are, and then make the art your own. Here we have a picture of some pancakes. If I'm drawing digitally, I may bring the opacity down and trace over the pancakes. This is an easy way to practice getting used to drawing specific shapes in different angles if you're drawing traditionally, always fun, a picture in a magazine or a picture in a newspaper and draw over it. This could be a good way to learn how to draw the shapes, or you can use tracing paper. After I traced the object I'm drawing, I may exaggerate some of the features. Sometimes this is just about making the object bigger or smaller. And sometimes it's adding things like texture details or maybe something you wish the picture had, like on pancakes, you could add butter or maple syrup. You could also take something away. I already knew I wanted my pancakes to have butter. This picture already had butter, but if it didn't, it, it, it also has maple syrup, but I've decided not to add it in the end. It's your picture and you can decide to add and what to leave out. After you practice a lot, you'll notice that you may not even need a reference. This goes into our fourth step about drawing without a reference. I know that for me, I draw almost every single day and after awhile some things may start to come more naturally to you, especially if you draw a lot. I think that this is because you start to have a better understanding of the shapes that make up each picture. And this makes it easier to recall later if you're having trouble drawing something, I recommend trying to draw it at least ten times or more and see if it starts to become easier. It's all about seeing a picture at breaking it down into shapes so that we can understand it. Over time. You will learn to identify the shapes without tracing over the picture. You would just look at it and realize what shapes it's made out of. This is what I like to call sing. Like an artist. We'll talk more about identifying the shapes in the step-by-step instruction. And important thing to remember is that there's not only one way to draw, it's just about finding the way that works for you. We briefly touched on the third step, practicing the shapes. Like I said before, if you have trouble drawing something, practice really does make perfect and it can lead to you perfecting your skill. If you've been practicing art for awhile, you may be tired of hearing that phrase or you may not even believe it. When I first started doing art, I thought I would never become good at it, but determined to give it my best shot. It was easier for me to look at drawings of cartoons and replicate it, but harder for me to replicate something realistic. That's why we're going to use stock photos. I want to show you that it's possible to see the shapes in realistic objects. This way, you can find inspiration for many things. Even though we're going to be using realistic references, it's still important to look at QY art, like I mentioned in the lesson. This is because after we turn the realistic image into a cartoon, you will want to give it your own artistic flare. And that's where the Hawaii art style comes in. If we take our time, learn how to break pictures down into shapes, then we can recreate it in our own style. Let's talk more about identifying the shapes and practicing them in the step-by-step instruction. Now that we've talked all about what we're going to do, it's time to do it. I'm super excited to show all of you the step-by-step instruction. So let's get to it. I look forward to seeing all of you in the next lesson. 6. Pancakes: Hi, welcome back. This lesson, we'll start our step-by-step instruction. We will do ten different quiet breakfast foods, each in their own lessons. Some of the foods have alternative forms, so we may do too. And some lessons. It's your choice as to which one you pick or if you choose to pick both. The practice, even though we're not going to use these breakfast foods for our class project, I do recommend using them as practice. Feel free to share these. Any work in progress in the project and resources tab below, just click on start a project. We'll talk more about the class project after the step-by-step instruction. Just to clarify, this is not a tutorial on how to do digital art, but rather a tutorial on how to identify the shapes seen in realistic images. I want to draw them and how to make them go away. I hope this teaches you how to identify the shapes and start seeing like an artist as well as how to make anything Hawaii a reminder, all the images from the class can be found in the project and resources tab down below. This way, you can upload them into your preferred digital art tool, or you can print them and try it traditionally, one thing to keep in mind is that this is just practice. So there's no pressure. It takes a lot of practice to be able to get the art to look the way you want. So don't be discouraged. If you don't get it the first time around, you can watch the lessons as many times as you want and follow along. You can also pause if the video goes too fast. Okay, now let's get started. Okay, so our first step is bringing down the opacity. This is easy to do if you're doing it digitally and if you're doing a tradition link, consider bringing down the opacity before you print it. I'm going to start by just drawing an oval for the top. Now when tracing over these realistic images, it's okay to simplify, just like most Kuwait. Simplify it and not worry about all those weird edges going to be doing a curve for the side of the pancakes, tapering it off on the sides. It may take a few tries to get a good line. It did for me. I just couldn't show all of it in the film. And then the second, third pancake, very similar, just adding a curve at the top since we can't see the whole circle or oval and then adding those edges in. Also a reminder that you guys can change anything that you want. If you think some of the pancakes will look better, a little bigger, a little smaller. It's just a reminder that you guys have some creative freedom. Get creative. And I'd love to see what you come up with. If you're doing this digitally, you can always toggle the layer with the pancakes on it, on and off so you can kinda see what it's gonna look like afterwards. You're doing it traditionally, I recommend tracing over it like we're doing. And then afterwards trying to draw it again without using the reference. So that way it looks clean. This always helps me get used to the shape and then practice doing it on my own. The butter is very much square line with curved corners, I think we talked about in the, what is Gwaii about having curved edges. Then we're going to bring down the signs of the butter and connect between them. I'm not going to talk too much about color choices. You all can color whatever color you want. I like to try to take some colors from the original picture or find pictures online that have colors that I like and then use the Google eyedropper to select them. It's up to you though, if you wanna do it the traditional colors or maybe you want to do it some fun colors. I do recommend keeping it to a simple color palette. We've talked about that in what is Gwaii also. And if you want all of the breakfast foods to look cohesive, center using the same colors throughout, for example, maybe use the same brown for the toast or for other types of bread, things like that. And I'm not really going to talk much about the shading and highlights either. If you guys have any questions about anything, you guys are always welcome to reach out and we are going to go back and talk about the face. We're going to talk about how to make this specific expression. Though. You guys are welcome to do any expression that you want. Like I said, we have our creative freedom. For the eyes. We're just going to do two circles with two smaller circles on the inside. This is easy to do if you're doing it digitally because you can just bring the brush up to the size that you want, but it's not difficult to do it traditionally either. The mouth is just a curve and then the cheeks are just. Normally Hawaii expressions are very simple and easy. Do next, I'm just adding some detail. It's up to you if you want to add detail to your pancakes. I think that it's cute, but I don't always add detail to my illustrations. So like I said, up to you toward the end, you'll see me add a background. I don't always add up background, but sometimes I do. Sometimes there's a lot of blank space, but I don't want to do a big background. I'll add a shape behind whatever I'm drawing. This is an easy way to break up the white-space without too much effort. Also sometimes like to add a highlight around whatever I'm drawing. I'll actually do that in all of the breakfast foods that I'll be drawing. I think it's a good way to break up the whitespaces well, for offset it from the background, these are options that you can do digitally or traditionally. This is the end of this lesson. In the next lesson, I'm gonna be showing you how to draw them up and thank you for making it to the end of this one. And I can't wait to see you in the next one. See you there. 7. Muffin: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, you'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on how to draw method. If you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instructions, consider listening to the beginning of the lesson on hollow jaw pancakes. So we already covered all that. Let's go ahead and get started. Our first step, again is justice, the opacity down. And in this case, I'm going to move the picture over a little. So the muffin I want to focus on is right in the middle. If you're doing this traditionally, you may consider resizing it and then renting it. For this muffin. I started with a curve. I added a curve on the side, brought it around, and then connected it on the other side. Now you can leave it at that if you want. But I actually went back and changed it to some smaller curves on the bottom, you can make your muffin is curvy as you want. You can even add curves to the top. But for me I wanted to add blueberries, so I didn't want the top to be two curvy and take away from that. So it's really up to you. You all are welcome to change anything that you want. We have creative control and I would love to see what you come up with. After that, we have two lines that are slightly diagonal coming down and then we're going to connect it with a curve. Now, I'm going to add a circle and then a curve for the blueberry. And then for the other blueberries, I'm going to add a curve first and then a half circle. This is just because I wanted them to be a little bit smaller and then you can just erase anything that you don't need. Now we're going to bring down some lines for the lines of the cupcake paper. Of course, you don't have to do this if you wanted to just color in the paper or decorated a different way, you can. I just think that's cute. If you're working digitally, it's time to hide my reference layer. And if you're working traditionally, consider redrawing it on a blank piece of paper. Again, I'm not really going to talk much about colors, shading, or highlights. If you have any questions you can always reach out and I'll try to help you in the best way that I can. If you're wondering how I select my colors to talk more about that in the previous lesson on drunk pancakes, like before, we're going to go back and talk about the facial features. You can choose any expression that you want. But I'm going to walk you through the process of creating this one. I'm starting out with two black circles. If you're doing this digitally, it's easy to just bring the brush size up to the size that you want the circles to be, but it's not hard to do traditionally either. One time, I added two white circles, once smaller than the other. In my opinion, this helps a look even more childlike. I decided to go with this sort of animal-like mouth that looks very much like a curvy w, or you can think of it as two curves side-by-side. Afterward, I added ovals for the blush, could also consider doing circles up to you. Okay, We're finally finished with the muffin. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add a highlight to help it stand out from the background. It's really up to you. Thank you for making it to the end of this lesson. And the next one you're going to learn how to draw Bacon. Bacon is one of the ones that has an alternative forms. So there's gonna be two in that lesson, I look forward to seeing you there. 8. Bacon: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, you'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on how to draw it again, if you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instruction, consider listening to the beginning of the lesson on how to draw pancake. Since we already covered all that, let's go ahead and get started. So I started out with this picture wasn't the best picture, but the bacon had a good shape. I brought down the opacity and just like a muffin, I went ahead and move the bacon that I wanted into the middle. So if you're doing this traditionally, you may consider putting the opacity down, resizing it and then printing it. I start out by adding occur to the top and the bottom of the begun, deciding how tall I want the begun to be. The curves are at a slight angle similar to the reference. Then I'm going to connect those curves with two long wavy lines. After we get a good shape for the Bacon, we can turn off our reference layer. If you're working traditionally, hopefully you feel comfortable with the shapes. Now, you may want to consider redrawing the bank in on a blank piece of paper. After that, I decided I want my bacon to be even thicker. This is really up to you and what you want your bank until look like. But I did think it'd be cute or if it was thicker, so you will see me resize it. And I actually had made a copy of it just in case I didn't like it. So that's something to keep in mind. Next, I'm going to do those two wavy lines two more times in the middle, just mimicking the shape of the original lines that we already drew as a heads up, I'm gonna be doing to Bacon's in this lesson. If you want to do that as well, you may consider going ahead and copying the line art for the begun and putting it on its own layer for later. Again, I'm not really going to talk much about color shading or highlights. If you have any questions, you can always reach out and I'll try to help you in the best way that I can. And if you're wondering how I select my colors, I talk about that more in the previous lesson on drawing pancakes. Now, like before, we're going to talk about the facial features. You can choose any expression that you want. But I'm going to walk you through the process of creating this one. So for the eyes, I start out with two curves that Bacon has closed eyes. We're gonna do a line for the top of the mouth and then a U-shaped for under the mouth. The tongue is also a curve and the cheeks or ovals. So if you did this digitally, you could take the other Bacon we made earlier and turn it on its side. If you're doing it traditionally, you want to just go ahead and draw another big gig. And I'm going to be adding two circles for the eyes and then to white circles for the reflection in the eyes. And if you're doing this digitally, it really helped me to put the mouth separate and then add it on top. So we're gonna be doing this kind of bean shape or the mouth, or you could think of it as a curvy oval. And then we're just going to be adding a curve, the tongue just like we did before. Like I said, if you're doing it digitally, you wanna go ahead and add it on top of the bacon. Okay, so we're finally finished drawing both of the big ones. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add a highlight to help it stand out from the background. Thank you for making it to the end of this lesson. And the next one, you're going to learn how to draw eggs. And this is also a two parter where we're going to learn how to do a Friday and irregular egg. I look forward to seeing you there. 9. Eggs: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, you'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on how to draw eggs. This is a two-part instruction with one regular egg and one Friday. It's up to you if you want to draw both or if you just want to draw one, It's just practice. So it's no pressure if you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instructions that are listening to the beginning of the lesson on how to draw pancakes. Since we already covered all that, let's go ahead and get started. Like before, we're starting out with bringing the opacity down. If you're working traditionally, you may consider bringing the opacity down before you print it. We're going to start out by doing a circle for veal. And then when we get to the white of the egg, I'm going to exaggerate the curves. You can see that this egg doesn't have a lot of curves. I personally think it looks cuter with more exaggerated curves, very similar to what I did with the bacon and the last lesson. So it's up to you. It's okay to add or take away things. If you think it's going to look better, That's just having your own artistic style. Now we can take away our reference. If you're doing this traditionally, I hope that you're feeling a bit more comfortable with the shapes and now you can redraw it on a new piece of paper. Again, I'm not really going to talk much about colors, shading, or highlights. If you have any questions you can always reach out and I'll try to help you if you're wondering how I select my colors, I talk more about that in the previous lesson on drawing pancakes. You can choose any facial expression that you want, but I will tell you how I did this one. So I use two black circles for the eyes to smaller white circles for reflection in the eyes, in line for the top of the mouth, and then a U-shaped for the open mouth with a curve for the tongue. And then we'll just add two ovals for the blush on the GI. Okay, now we're gonna be working on the regular a and I forgot to put the opacity down. Of course you all can put the opacity down if you want. But very simple shape here, just a very simple oval. We're going to be doing that and then we're gonna be going right into the facial expression. So like always, you can choose whatever facial expression you want. But I'm gonna be showing you how I did mine. This face is very similar to the Friday. We have the two black circles, the two white circles on the inside and the mouth is just the same as well. The only difference is that I put the mouth right between the eyes. Sometimes you see this and Hawaii are, I do think that it's very cute. So other differences that I added a second highlight. I think we saw this in one of the other drawings. It just makes it look a little bit more childlike. Okay, we're finally finished with drawing both of our eggs. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add a highlight to help it stand out from the background and thank you for making it to the end of this lesson. And the next one, you're going to learn how to draw coffee. I look forward to seeing you there. 10. Coffee: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, you'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on how to draw coffee. If you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instruction, consider listing to the beginning of the lesson on how to draw pancakes. Since we already covered all of that, let's go ahead and get started. Okay, so I forgot to turn on the opacity. Of course all of you can turn down your opacity if you want. And if we're doing it traditionally, I recommend turning down your opacity before you print it. So the coffee is the hardest one we've done so far. This is because the coffee has more dimension, meaning that the other pictures we did were very flat. And this one's going to look a bit more 3D, but it's no worries. We're going to still take it step-by-step. Remember that this is just practice. You can draw it as many times as you want until you get a good shape. We're going to start out with just an oval for the top. We're going to bring down the signs. And you can see that the cup is at a curve, but it's wider at the top and as it goes down, it's getting more narrow. So that's something to keep in mind that we're just going to connect the two sides of the cup at the bottom of the curve, the handle is just two curves and you can see that the handle has dementia and it has another curve. I chose not to draw that curve. It's up to you if you want to. And then also, you can see that on the rim of the cup, There's also technically another curve and I also chose not to draw that as well. This is kinda going back to the what is quiet and keeping it simple. I just drew a curve for the coffee line. Now I did turn off the background so that I can make sure that I was coloring everything white. Since the background was white, I couldn't tell, but I will flip back after that. Again, I'm not really going to talk much about colors, shading or highlights. If you have any questions, you can always reach out and not try to help you. If you're wondering how I select my colors, I talk about that more in the previous lesson on drawing pancakes. As always, you can select any expression. I'm going to show you how I drew mine. I started out with two curves for the eyes. These are just closed eyes, but not necessarily sleeping. It's just a happy expression. Normally if it's sleeping, the eyes will be curved in the other direction. I like to make mine a little bit thicker. I picked out looks cuter. And I added a line for the top of the mouth and then a U-shaped for the bottom of the mouth, adding a curve for the tongue. And then we're going to add ovals for the cheeks. Okay, we're finally finished with the coffee. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add an outline to help it stand out from the background, but that's up to you and thank you for making it to the end of this lesson. And the next one, you're going to learn how to draw a carton of milk. I look forward to seeing you there. 11. Milk: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, you'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on how to draw a carton of milk. If you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instruction, consider listening to the beginning of the lesson on how to draw pancakes. Since we already covered all that, let's go ahead and get started. Okay, so first thing we're gonna do, write down the opacity, resize it. If you're doing it traditionally, you might want to do that before you print it. I actually zoomed in on the wrong carton of milk, but, but we'll be using the smaller one. So most of the milk cartons made up of straight lines. I don't think that you need me to tell you how to draw straight line, but we're going to talk a little bit about the shape overall. So I do think this is one of the easier ones we have to do. Not only is it straight lines, but when we look at it, I think it's easier to identify the shapes because of those straight lines. But the thing I think is maybe a little bit more difficult is that it's at an angle. So that is something you want to keep in mind when you're drawing. The edges at the top are curves, but you can see that the whole top part is a rectangle. And then we're gonna go right into the side, which is a triangle. The rest of the shapes are just rectangles. You just have to be aware of the angle that you're drawing them at. And I know all of you most likely know what shapes are, but I do think it's easier to draw them once you can identify the shapes, it is a bit easier when you look at this and you can clearly see this shapes because of the straight lines, but a little bit more difficult when we were drawing, say the coffee for example. Okay, now we can turn off our reference layer and if you're working traditionally, you may consider drawing it again on a blank piece of paper since we're more comfortable with the shapes, you can decorate your milk carton however you want. I decided to add a line going around the carton and then another one underneath it. Again, I'm not really going to talk much about colors, shading, or highlights. If you have any questions, you're always welcome to reach out and I'll try to help you. If you're wondering how I select my colors, we'll talk about that more in the previous lesson on drawing pancakes, you're always welcome to choose any expression that you want. But I will walk you through how I did mine. So I just did a black circle with a smaller white circle for the eyes, just a small curve or the mouth. And I did put that up between the eyes. I do think that's cute and it's a style you see in quiet sometimes. And then I just did ovals for the cheeks for a font, I just rhombic, cute font. You can use any font that you want. I think I just searched like Hawaii font online and I made that white. And then I played around with where I wanted to put it and decided where I liked it. So those kind of things are up to you. It just depends on your artistic style and I look forward to seeing what you come up with. Okay, we're finally finished with our milk carton. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add an outline to help it stand out from the background and thank you for making it to the end of this lesson. And the next one, you're going to learn how to draw juice, specifically a glass of juice. I look forward to seeing you there. 12. Juice: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, we'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on how to Joel juice. If you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instruction, consider listening to the beginning of the lesson on how to draw pancakes. Since we already covered all that, let's go ahead and get started. Okay. So we want to start with our photo. If you need to, you can re-size it. You can put the opacity down. If you're working traditionally, you may consider doing these things before you print it. We're gonna start with just the top of the glass. And we're going to draw an oval. We're going to come down with a line each side, but we are going to slightly tapered and toward the bottom gets a little bit more narrow. And then we're going to connect it with the curve. As you can see, there's a bit of space at the bottom of the glass. This is the glass itself. And I tried to bring those curves up on the side. Sometimes I do this and I like the style, but I didn't think it looked good in this instance. So I don't recommend drawing in those sidelines instead of just do the curve at the bottom. And then for the juice itself, we're going to do an oval. This is the time that we turn off the background. Hopefully you're a lot more comfortable with the shapes. And if you're doing it traditionally, you may consider just redrawing it a different piece of paper. Now, normally I don't talk about color, shading or highlights. If you have any questions, you can just reach out and I'll try to help you. And you're also welcome to go back and watch the lesson on drawing pancake. So talk a bit more about how I select my colors, but I do want to mention this time that or the glass itself. I recommend coloring now on a different layer and then putting the opacity down and that's really going to make it look like a glass. Now, if you're doing it traditionally, it would be a lot harder because you won't be able to just bring the opacity down. But I did just want to mention that for those who are doing it digitally now, like always, you can choose any expression that you want, but I will just walk you through the steps of how I do it. This one, I did two black circles for the eyes to white circles for the reflection in the eyes, a curve for the mouth and then kind of an upside down U-shape for the tongue. And of course you could put the tongue down. I just thought it was cute, putting it up and then I put a little bit of a line. So that's kinda that line that you have in the middle of your tongue, ovals for the cheeks. Okay, So I thought that the juice is really missing something. So I found a picture of an orange slice and then I drew that. I couldn't find where I had found that orange slice, but I did find one very similar. So we'll be adding that to the other photos in the project and resources tab. If you want to see that, Then I just moved it and resized it to where I wanted to. This is optional. You don't have to, and if you want to make it a different type of juice, you can always add a different type of fruit, but I think adding the fruit definitely helps make sure that it's coming across the way that you want. Because this could be mango juice, this could be tangerine juice, I don't know, but I did think it was cute. So again, that's up to you and your artistic style and what you want it to look like, okay, so we're falling finished with the juice. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add an outline to help it stand out from the background, but thank you for making it to them this lesson. In the next one, you're going to learn how to draw toast. I look forward to seeing you there. 13. Toast: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, you'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on how to draw toast. If you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instruction, consider listening to the beginning of the lesson on how to draw pancakes. Since we already covered all that, let's go ahead and get started. Okay, so we're gonna start with resizing and bringing down the opacity. If you're doing this traditionally, I recommend doing that before you print it. So just like the milk carton, I think that it's very easy to see the shape. We're starting with the big curve and then the rest of it is very rectangular shape. We do have a little bit of a V shape where the rectangle and the curve connect like a V on its side. And then we're gonna do that same shape again for the inside crust. We're going to really manipulate the shape. And this is because I think that the toast would be very cute if it was longer. So I went ahead and just manipulated that shape. It's up to you how you want your toes to look like. We all have our own artistic style and so if you want the toes to be smaller or bigger, you're welcome to manipulate the shape and the way that you'd like. Again, I'm not really going to talk much about colors, shading or highlighting. If you have any questions you can always reach out and I'll try to help you in the best way that I can. If you're wondering how I select my colors, I talk more about that in the previous lesson on drawing pancakes, you're welcome to draw any expression that you want. I will walk you through how I did this one. It's very simple. We just did a black circle for both of the eyes, or white circle on the inside for the reflection curve for the mouth and ovals for the cheeks. After that, I decided to add some various small little dots and circles as some detail on the breads up to you if you want to add that or if you want to add something else. Like I said, we have some creative freedom. I love to see what you guys come up with. Okay, we're finally finished with the toast. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add an outline to help it stand out from the background and thank you for making it to the end of this lesson. And the next one, you're going to learn how to draw jam because you can't have hosts without jam. I look forward to seeing you there. 14. Jam: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, you'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on Khalid draw jam if you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instructions instead of listening to the beginning of the lesson on how to draw pancakes. Since we already covered all of that, let's go ahead and get started. Okay, so the first thing we're gonna do bring down the opacity. And every doing this traditionally, I suggest that you do any resizing. I'm putting the opacity down before you print it. But let's start with the curve, the top of the lid and then we're going to bring a straight line over and curve down on this side, we're going to do a curve on each side of the string. And then we're going to connect those two curves for two lines as well. Now I wouldn't get too nervous about the paper that's hanging down. It does look a lot more complicated than it is. We're going to just do it step-by-step like we have been and will be through it before you know it. Notice how all of these curves coming down, if it helps, you could start with all the curves going down before drawing the rest of it. You don't necessarily have to go in the same order than I did then I recommend doing these curve and then this V-shape. Now you can see I didn't stay completely in the lines. This goes back to our creative freedom, changing anything that we think is going to look good. And you can also see that I have started a little bit of the line for the jam this so I know how far I can bring back this line. So once you draw in a little edge of the jam, you can go ahead and connect that. Now the game itself, we have a slight diagonal and then we're gonna go down with two straight lines and connect it with a curve. So you may have noticed that I added two little shapes here. The left one looks like a small triangle, and the right one looks like an L shape. This is an easy way to make fabric look like it's curling under. So I do recommend that something I didn't add was the bot. It's up to you if you want to. I just decided not to. I also didn't add the label because I wanted to have room for an expression. Again, this is just a personal preference. Now it's time to turn off your reference layer. Hopefully you're feeling more comfortable with the shapes. And if you're doing it traditionally, I'd suggest you just go ahead and redraw it on a blank piece of paper. Again, I'm not really going to talk much about colors, shading, or highlights. If you have any questions, you can always reach out. If you're wondering how I select my colors, I talk about that more in the previous lesson on drawing pancakes, I decided to go ahead and draw a strawberry similar to whenever we do the juice, I thought adding a fruit would help my viewers understand that this was strawberry jam, not just any type of jam. Of course you don't have to add it if you don't want to. I do think it would have been cute just to leave the strawberry on the side and add a little face. But in this instance, I decided to make it look like a sticker. I did put a little white outline around the strawberry and then put it on the jam. Of course you don't have to. It's just my artistic style, so I just drew this one, but I did find a very similar photo to it. So I went ahead put that in the project and resources tab with all of the other pictures for the class. The body of the strawberry is almost like a rounded triangle I did for triangular leaves. And all of the dots are just very small circles. You all are welcome to do any expression you want to do. But I'm going to show you how I did this one, I started out with two lakh circles for the eyes and then two smaller white circles for the reflection in the eyes. Then I added a small line for the top of the mouth and then a U-shape under that for an open mouth, then it just add a little curve for the tongue. And later you'll see that I added a little ovals on the cheeks with the blush. Okay, We're finally finished with the jam. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add an outline to help it stand out from the background. So that's up to you, but thank you for making it to the end of this lesson. And the next one, we're going to learn how to draw an avocado. This is going to be our last step-by-step instruction. And after that, we will have our class project and our conclusions. So I look forward to seeing you there. 15. Avocado: Hi, welcome back. In this lesson, you'll be seeing a step-by-step instruction on how to draw and avocado. If you want more information on what to expect in the step-by-step instruction, sitting, listening to the beginning of the lesson on hollow jaw pancakes. Since we already covered all of that, let's go ahead and get started. So first thing, resize and bring down the opacity. I think I forgot to bring down the opacity on this one, but of course you are welcome to. And if you're doing this traditionally, I recommend you do that before you print it. So the avocado is fairly simple. The shape overall is very oval. Just have to make sure that the top is more narrow while the bottom is thicker. Now you can see a bit of the side of the avocado. I didn't personally choose to draw this. You can if you want. I just wanted to keep it simple. The middle, the pit of the avocado I did as a circle. It doesn't have to be perfect, just as good as you can get it. And then I went ahead and took the background off. So if you are doing this traditionally, hopefully you feel comfortable with the shape. You can draw it again on different piece of paper. I want to go ahead and add a line going all the way around, just going ahead and doing the same shape we just did, but leaving a bit of space for the rim. And then I'm gonna do it one more time. So that way we have three distinct, different colors of the avocado. Now, on the original picture, you don't see this as mud. It almost looks like one shade. And of course, you could leave it with just the rim and not add that second line on the inside. It's really up to you personal preference, but now it's time to go ahead and color are avocado. Again, I'm not really going to talk much about colors, shading, or highlights. If you have any questions, you can always reach out if you're wondering how I select my colors about that more in the previous lesson on drawing pancakes. Okay, so now I just wanted to resize it a little bit. If you like the shape of your avocado, you don't have to resize it. I did just stretch it a little bit. I wanted it to be a little bit more narrow at the top. After this, we're going to give the avocado a face. You can give it any expression, but I'm going to go through the steps on how I made this expression. We're going to start out with two black circles for the eyes and two smaller white circles for the reflection and the eyes. I always think that this gives a little more in line to our piece. Now I decided to do an open mouth, so I did an oval and then just a curve for the tongue. We're also gonna do ovals but horizontally for the blush on the cheeks. Okay, so we're finally finished with our avocado. If you want, you can add a background. I also like to add an outline to help it stand out from the background, but that's really up to you. Creative freedom and all that. This is our last step-by-step instruction. I'm super proud of all of you for making it this far and feel free to watch any of the lessons again, to practice these foods, you're probably tired of hearing it, but practice really does make perfect and feel free to share Amy and all of your progress with me and the class. I'd love to see what all of you come up with. Thank you for making it this far, and I look forward to seeing you in the next lesson. 16. Conclusion: Hi everyone and welcome back. I'm super happy that all of you have made it this far. I did just want to include a conclusion so we can briefly talk about everything we've covered in this course. I feel like we've covered a lot in this course, but I tried to choose some of our key topics are first thing to keep in mind when drunk Hawaii is to make things as Q as possible. Some of the key characteristics found in Hawaii, IRR, simplicity, ChildLine, a big head, big eyes, a small nose or no nose, and a small body. Some other characteristics you may see our blush, simple colors and rounded shapes. Some common themes found in quiet RR, but not limited to people, food, animals, and everyday objects. If you want to learn more about these things, I recommend going back and listening to the lesson on what is Hawaii. The second to remember is the four steps to building your skill as an artist. One FARC, images you want to draw not only for references, but also to find what art styles you like for inspiration and motivation. It's always a good idea to figure out what you like and why you like it so that you can implement it into your own art to learn what shapes make up these images. This is how we start being able to see like an artist, three, practice these shapes practice makes perfect for a while without a reference. Once you practice a lot and learn the shapes, it will lead you to being able to draw without tracing and eventually you'll be able to recall the shapes all on your own. This may take a lot of time, so try not to get frustrated if it doesn't happen right away, this can literally take years. There's no shame in drawing with references as long as you remember to make it your own and to give credit when it's due. If you want to learn more about these things, I recommend going back and listening to the lesson on how to draw from a reference. The third and last thing to remember is to not stress. It takes a lot of time and practice to get your art to look the way you want. Our journey as artists is never done. We're always going to be learning new things and improving our technique and our style. And that's okay. Just don't forget to have fun while you're doing it. Thank you to all of you who have made it this far, and I look forward to seeing you in my future courses. Bye.
