Made a bit of a mistake when writing the title of this spread so I covered it up. And that’s okay! Sometimes I just gotta remind myself that mistakes are okay.

bamboo tutorial!

here’s the long-awaited bamboo tutorial!! so sorry it’s taken me this long to get it here; i’ve been really busy with schools w/ finals and ap exams but here it is!!!

step 1:

on the left- take your favorite green colored marker and make little lines with gaps in between them. on the right- draw long, skinny boxes

step 2:

on the left- take the tip of your marker and make little Vs on different parts of the bamboo. you can also make a sprout by drawing a line and then adding the Vs. on the right- draw ovals the same width of your bamboo. these ovals should be pretty small and spaced about the same distance away from each other. make sure to stagger them tho if you have multiple stalks (??) of bamboo so it doesn’t look all the same

step 3:

on the left- take a white gel pen (this is optional) and just add some highlights along some of the bamboo. this gives it some more ~detail.~ on the right- basically do the same exact thing as step two for the left side but with your marker or fineliner. you’re making little leaves that look like Vs. you can also add some sprouts :)

bonus step: (not pictured)

with either one, you can add little leaves floating around the bamboo to look as if some of the leaves are blowing in the wind 

i hope you all liked this tutorial!! if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!!
