At the start of the year, I was going crazy, drawing many words such as this one. "TREE". This picture very nicely contrasts the difference of a drawing with 6 layers, to a picture with only 2. Basically, after you sort out your outline and base color for your word, you add another, lighter color on top (mine is a lime green), and then it's time for the top highlight. The highlight gives it a curvy and bouncy feeling. Instead of using just a white highlight (which is fine), I like to use highlights that are more yellow, or warm (but still lighter than all the other layers!). For this drawing, I actually didn't plan how it would look like, I just went with the flow (haha). I guess it worked out pretty good though!
