How to Draw Sushi

1. Begin by drawing the table. First, draw a rectangle, tilted diagonally. Extend short lines downward from three of the rectangle's points. Connect these using long straight lines. Then, draw two small squares just beyond the edge of the rectangle. Connect the upper corners of the squares to the rectangle using short straight lines.

2. Draw the nigiri sushi, seafood on top of rice. Outline an irregular rounded shape, and band it with a curved line. Texture the lower rice portion with short lines and dots, the upper portion with wavy lines. Outline a small irregular shape at one end, and draw a line down its middle.

3. Draw another sushi. This one is topped with tamago, a type of sweet egg omelet, and wrapped in nori, or seaweed. Draw an irregular oval shape, and band it with a curved line. Then, draw two parallel curved lines across the middle, and texture this with small dots.

4. Up next are maki, or traditional sushi rolls wrapped in seaweed. First, draw two ovals. Then, draw curved lines descending from each end of the ovals. Connect these using curved lines, and texture the seaweed with vertical lines.

5. Detail what's inside your sushi rolls. Draw irregular shapes and curved lines to indicate the fish, vegetables, and rice.

6. Draw another maki roll topped with roe, or fish eggs. Use small "U" shaped lines to enclose a rounded shape, then draw more "U" shaped lines inside the shape. Draw three lines descending from the roe, and connect them using a curved line.

7. Draw another sushi. Begin with a rounded rectangle, and draw an irregular shape inside it. Draw a line descending from each corner, and connect these with curved lines. Texture the seaweed with short lines.

8. Texture the tamago with curved lines, and draw a chopstick beside the table. Use two long straight lines, connected at a rounded point on each end. Notice that one point is sharper than the other.

9. Draw a second chopstick overlapping the first, erasing guide lines as necessary.
