Hello everyone! Although the Inktober challenge is over, I didn't want to break the drawing habit that I have developed. So I'm trying to draw something every day. I used to be like that when I was younger too. Drawing was a part of my routine. Even when I started working, I drew something on the first day as I was a newbie and didn't have much to do.
I felt a little tired today and didn't have the usual enthusiasm where I would try to post twice. So this is what I came up with. I was thinking and looking for inspirations to draw today. Then I remembered that I have some lemons in the fridge and I totally forgot about them. I'm just afraid that they might have gone bad. I'll find out tomorrow morning I guess. So that's what I drew today. I sketched a few lemons waiting to be turned into a jug of lemonade.
This is the first lemon I drew. I wanted it to be a partially peeled lemon.
Then, I drew two more lemons next to it on each side so that it doesn't feel lonely. I did some shadows too with partial cross hatches but mostly light lines.
I finished drawing the peeled part fully. This is how it looks when we use a peeler. I also drew the wooden table and cabinet they are sitting on. I made some loopy designs that wooden surfaces usually have. The drawing is done here actually and I could have just left it this way.
However, I wanted to add a pop of colour and missed my highlighters. So I used the yellow marker to colour the skin of the peeled lemon. I didn't colour the other lemons because honestly, that would take too much of my highlighter ink and I didn't want to waste it. I also wanted it to be black and white drawing and not colour dominant. This is the final outcome.
I hope that the lemons are alright tomorrow. I just forgot about them due to all the festivities. Thank you for dropping by and I hope that you have a great day ahead.
