Are you frustrated with your drawings/paintings of cups? Do they come out wonky or awkward? In this ArtByte I share what I know about cups and ellipses, and some techniques for making them easier to draw.

I posted this originally as a series of free lessons on my blog in January of 2018.

"Such helpful advice--I hate the drawing part of doing a painting so this is really going to help. I did a couple plates recently and they were very wobbly, lol. The plexi-glass idea sounds like a good idea too. Thank you!"
