Don't Know How to Draw? No Problem. Here's an Easy Way
I have a lottery website where I teach players how to understand the lottery from a mathematical perspective. And I know that adding some visual presentation will add value to my content for sure.
But I am not a very good artist. :(
Then I found an article about how to draw even if you are not an artist. I find it interesting so I tried one myself.
They say practice makes perfect. So I made a couple of drawings and guess what. I did it. And I find it so easy and quick too.
This simple technique is the one I use for my lottery blog. You can do the same thing on your blog too.
Let me show how I do it.
You need:
- GIMP - This is a free image editor. If you have a photoshop, you can use it too.
- Some spare time to practice
For this particular tutorial, I will show you how to draw a monster on a boat fishing in the middle of the sea.
So if you are ready, let's go.
Setup Your Background
The setup can be as simple as one color.
Add the Sea
The sea doesn't need to be straight. It can be rugged to make it similar to the surface of the sea.
Add the Boat
The boat doesn't have to be perfect. Just use a basic shape to make an impression of a boat.
Add the Body of the Monster
Now, here's the fun part. Using human figures is difficult, so that we will avoid it. Drawing a monster is much easier.
Add the Hat
Let's put a hat on our cool monster.
Add the Eyes
Two simple white circles are perfect.
Add the Eyeballs
And two cute little black circle is fine.
Put Some Eyebrows
Those little eyebrows will make your monster more expressive.
Make the Monster Smile
And of course, let's not forget to add some mood.
Put an Ear
Add a Nose
Add the Stick or the Fishing Rod
Draw the Arms
Add the Sun
And that's it.
Everything is simple. As you can see, I put the basic shapes (circle, square, rectangle, triangle) together to form a figure. The shapes are not perfect. They don't have to. You can make some slight modifications to the size and shapes when necessary.
It's not the drawing that you will bring to a painting competition. But it's a drawing you can use to add value to your blog content, projects, or presentations.
Apply the Technique
Practice this technique and apply it to spice up your blog. I use this technique in my article: How to Win the Lottery According to Math.
