In this lesson, I will show you in detail how to draw a cup. This guide is designed specifically for kids and novice artists.

With the help of a simple instruction, you will learn how to draw a cup step by step. This is an excellent object for drawing, and now you will once again train your artistic abilities. You can use the acquired skills when you want to draw a still life, where there will be a cup and other objects.

The picture shows a cup that has a narrow bottom and a wide top, with a small round handle on the side. This cup shape is very common. Perhaps you have such a cup at home, and you enjoy drinking tea from it.

While drawing, try to carefully draw all the lines that are marked in red. The finished drawing can be painted in any color. If desired, you can add any ornament on the surface of the cup.
If you want your drawing to look more realistic, then add shadows and highlights.
