Funny One LINERS.

Folks often ask me how I draw like I do. Well, it's easy and you can do it too. I put together this FREE drawing lesson just for you.

It all starts with a simple line. There's a lot of attitude in a simple line, okay? So just grab a crayon and draw some - bendy, straight or wiggly.



Then add some dots...



...and a few strokes to give it some body. Haha. See what I did there? BODY.



Words always add a little "je ne sais quoi".



A bit of colour to make it pop, and you're done.



See? It's easy! But BEWARE: too many clichés and you will end up with a flat line.



You're very welcome!

MORE Funny One Liners? Yes please.

    How such simple lines can be so expressive and suggestive and stuff is way beyond my ken.

    Simple yet very expressive. And I must agree that some people tend to overdo reactions on their drawings.

    100% Clever. Do you draw by hand then scan or do you use photoshop?

    Sorry to ruin the flatline joke, but flatline is just a TV term for a heart rhythm called asystole.
