4. Draw the cup’s handle. You will draw it at an angle to give it a three dimensional appearance. Draw two “C” shaped lines extending from the cup, roughly parallel and with one smaller than the other. Connect them with a curved line at each end.
Use another curved line to enclose a curved shape at the top of the handle. Give the handle dimension and depth by drawing a long, curved line across the bottom of the handle.
