In this beginner-friendly class, we’ll explore the basics of sketching with alcohol markers and create a fun, vibrant illustration of a delicious donut with icing and sprinkles.

You’ll learn how to sketch the donut step by step, build smooth color transitions with markers, add shadows for depth, and finish it off with highlights and texture using colored pencils and a white gel pen. We'll also explore how to draw tiny details like sprinkles and give them a realistic look with contrast and layering.

This class is broken down into clear, easy-to-follow lessons — from sketching and coloring to final touches — making it perfect for anyone who’s new to markers or just looking for a relaxing creative project.

Whether you're just starting out or want to add more playful illustrations to your sketchbook, this class will help you gain confidence and skills while drawing something sweet and satisfying.
