Drawing symmetrical cartoony tea and coffee cups is easy with this technique: mirroring. In Nit Wits #8 ("Tee Time") I drew one side of the cup and then mirrored (flipped) it to the other side. The result: a cup of equal symmetry.
After you draw the outline of your teacup, fill it with "tea" by coloring the inner circle with a brownish-red color. Then, add a little wispy steam line coming out the top with light-gray. Or are you a coffee lover? Make rounded mugs out of the tea service for two and slap a Starbucks logo on it instead!
Draw your own teacup (or coffee mug) by following my step-by-step drawing lesson below. And if you're in Britain right now, answer me this: is it time for tea and crumpets? |
