✨ What You’ll Need:
-
Pencil & Eraser
📝 Step-by-Step Tutorial:
Step 1: Sketch a Pointy Egg Shape
- Lightly draw a teardrop or oval shape with a pointed tip (this will be your strawberry’s body).
- Add a small crown of leaves at the top with short, jagged lines.
Step 2: Base Color
- Fill the strawberry with Bright Red using broad strokes.
- Color the leaves and stem with Mid Green.
Step 3: Add Shading
- Use a Darker Red to add shadows along the edges and near the leaves for depth.
Step 4: Seeds & Reflections
- Layer Bright Red again on the strawberry’s center to create a glossy effect.
- With a fine tip, dot tiny black seeds in a pattern.
Step 5: Highlights
- Bright Yellow: Add tiny highlights on the seeds.
- White Marker: Use a fine tip for extra shine on the strawberry’s curves.
Step 6: Shadow & Finishing Touches
- Blue Marker: Lightly sketch a soft shadow under the berry for dimension, you can also use blue to add darker layers to the leaves for texture.
- Use a lighter green for highlight & vein lines.
💡 Pro Tips:
✔ Layer Wisely: Let each color dry before adding details to avoid smudging.
✔ Blend Colors: For a gradient effect, lightly layer reds while the first coat is still wet.
✔ Fix Mistakes: Acrylic markers are opaque—just paint over errors after drying!
