It should fill most of the page with a margin all round.

이 그림에 대해

A mushroom is a dome on a cylinder, which makes it the one food that is really an architecture lesson: the cap overhangs the stem all the way round, casting the stem into shadow, and the gills radiate along the cap's underside like the ribs of an umbrella. It is a lamp, drawn from under the shade.

Underneath, this is a single shaded mass like the apple; the subject lives in the silhouette and the surface marks.

단계별로

  1. 단계 1

    Start with one oval for the whole mushroom.

    One shape, one motion. A slightly lopsided mass drawn confidently beats a perfect one assembled from nervous strokes, because you can correct a shape and you cannot un-see hesitation.

    조심해 Building the mass from many small safe strokes.

    체크 It should fill most of the page with a margin all round.

  2. 단계 2

    Vary the outline so it stops looking geometric.

    Nothing organic is a perfect oval. Push the outline in and out where the subject actually does - the asymmetry IS the likeness.

    조심해 Leaving the construction oval as the finished outline.

    체크 The outline should differ visibly from the oval underneath.

  3. 단계 3

    Mark the centre with two light lines.

    Two light lines through the middle are the rulers for everything that follows. Without them the features drift off-centre a few millimetres at a time.

    조심해 Skipping the axes because the shape looks simple.

    체크 The two lines should cross near the middle of the mass.

  4. 단계 4

    Draw the top of the mushroom.

    Whatever sits on top attaches INTO the form, not onto its outline - it comes out of a dip or a mound, and drawing that junction is what attaches it.

    조심해 Balancing the stalk on the outline like a hat.

    체크 The top feature should overlap the mass's outline.

  5. 단계 5

    Draw the top hollow.

    The hollow around the top is what makes the form read as having a top rather than an edge. One curve, and note which way it bows - it tells the viewer where their eye is.

    조심해 Omitting the dip so the top sits on a flat line.

    체크 The dip should curve, not sit flat.

  6. 단계 6

    Choose the light direction.

    Pick a direction and commit. Every decision from here - shading, highlight, cast shadow - follows from this one, and changing your mind halfway is the classic way a drawing ends up lit from two directions.

    조심해 Deferring the decision and shading by instinct.

    체크 You should be able to point at the light source.

  7. 단계 7

    Shade the dark half.

    Work in one direction and build darkness in passes. Scrubbing back and forth gives an even grey - precisely the thing that makes a drawing look flat.

    조심해 Scrubbing, and stopping two steps short of dark enough.

    체크 The dark side should be clearly darker than the mid tone.

  8. 단계 8

    Leave a light strip at the shadow edge.

    Leave a thin lighter strip right at the shadow-side edge - bounced light from the surface below. It is the single cheapest thing that makes a form read as round.

    조심해 Running the shading tight to the outline.

    체크 A lighter line should separate shading from edge.

  9. 단계 9

    Put one small highlight on the lit side.

    One highlight, small, off-centre on the lit side. Two symmetrical highlights read as plastic; a big one reads as wet.

    조심해 A large or doubled highlight.

    체크 The highlight should be smaller than your thumbnail.

  10. 단계 10

    Draw the mushroom surface.

    Surface marks follow the form - they curve over the mass and fade near the highlight. Flat marks cancel the volume you just shaded into it.

    조심해 Marks drawn flat across the curved surface.

    체크 Marks should bend with the surface.

  11. 단계 11

    Add the cast shadow.

    Darkest at the contact point, softer as it stretches away from the light. It anchors the object; without it everything you shaded still floats.

    조심해 An even grey puddle not touching the object.

    체크 The shadow should touch the object's base.

  12. 단계 12

    Strengthen what stays and erase the guides.

    Weight the silhouette, erase the axes and the oval, and leave the interior marks light. The weight difference is what makes it look deliberate.

    조심해 Equal weight everywhere.

    체크 Outline darkest, marks lightest, guides gone.

The finished drawing of a mushroom with the construction lines erased

이 책이 실제로 가르치는 것은

The skill underneath is committing to a light direction before shading anything. Most flat-looking drawings are lit from nowhere in particular, and deciding is the fix.

The mushroom is the family's first self-shadowing form - one part casting shade on another. The stem darkening under the cap is the same logic as the nose's shadow on the lip, met here on a subject with no likeness to protect.

필요한 것

A pencil, kept light until the last step, and an eraser you will actually use. The construction is deliberately drawn to be removed.

잘못된 일이 생기면

If the cap looks stuck on, the underside is missing: the cap's lower edge is a visible curve, and the gill lines hang from it, converging toward the stem.

If it looks like a nail, the stem is too thin - a mushroom's stem is stout, between a third and half the cap's width, and it thickens slightly at the ground.

If it floats, the stem's shadow is missing: the cap overhangs, so the top of the stem is always in shade, darkest right under the cap.

사람들이 묻는 질문

How do I draw mushroom gills?
As short lines hanging from the cap's underside curve, converging toward the stem - umbrella ribs seen from below. Five or six read as fifty.
How thick should a mushroom stem be?
Stout - a third to half the cap's width, thickening slightly at the base. A thin stem turns the mushroom into a nail.
Why is the top of the stem dark?
The cap overhangs it all the way round, so the stem stands in the cap's shadow - darkest right under it. Draw that and the two parts lock together.
Can I draw a mushroom on paper instead of the canvas?
Yes, and for a shading lesson paper is arguably better - a soft pencil gives you more range than a finger on glass. The printable sheet has every step, and a photographed result is measured the same way.
How do I start drawing a mushroom?
One oval, drawn in a single motion, then correct the silhouette where the real thing differs. The oval is scaffolding, not the outline.
How do I shade a mushroom?
Pick a light direction and commit, shade in one direction in passes, keep the darkest band just inside the edge, and leave one small off-centre highlight.
Why does my mushroom look flat?
Almost certainly range - no true dark anywhere and no untouched light left on the page. Go two steps darker than feels safe and leave the highlight alone.
Can a beginner draw a mushroom?
Yes - it is deliberately one of the simpler forms here, chosen so the shading can be the whole lesson.
Does a mushroom need a cast shadow?
Yes, always. Without one the form floats on the page however carefully you shaded it. Darkest at the contact point, softer as it stretches away.
