In the daily routine, we don’t pay much attention to the things that are always there. Drinking glasses are, without a doubt, one of those things. In the ancient times, humanity used wooden cups to drink liquids from. In the 21st century, it will be super-hard to find one of those (maybe in some museums that specialize in these kinds of things).

The glasses of our time come in various shapes and serve different purposes. For example, the tall ones with oval tops are best for drinking wine. The regular glasses can be used for drinking water, soda, and juices. Generally, we use this term to describe a vessel that contains liquids/beverages. Jars, mugs, coffee cups, beer glassware – the choice is yours! 

Some Things To Keep In Mind…

These tutorials are only here to guide you. Your drawing does not need to look "identical" to mine.

Start with rough but light pencil strokes that you can work into the shapes you want.

Once you have your rough drawing completed, go over it in a darker stroke for your final drawing.

Add shading and/or color to complete if desired.

Using this technique you will be able to draw anything after some practice... even without following step-by-step tutorials.
