Description: Well summer is officially here and you know what that means, camping, beaches, picnics, bike riding, cookouts, amusement parks, and of course the nightly campfires. I love summer because I get to do a bunch of fun stuff that can be talked about everyday. For my third lesson I will be showing you “how to draw a campfire step by step”. Campfires are absolutely amazing to sit in front of, cook marshmallows with, and even s’mores. There is so many places where you can build a campfire at and I wanted to draw the most typical one that comes to mind. Everyone has a different mental picture of a campfire right? Well, I drew the kind that is most mentally thought about. If you were in the “Boy scouts”, I’m sure you learned "how to build a campfire" and you also learned some basic survival skills if you were to get stuck in the woods. I know my brother leaned some cool ideas and techniques like carrying a whistle, having a flint in your pocket or on your keyring, and even a small portable keychain flashlight. I mean there is a lot more things that you learn while in the boy scouts, those are just the ones I know about. Anyway, this tutorial is pretty simple. All you really have to do is take your time and have fun. You will learn soon enough “how to draw a campfire step by step”. I shall return once again so stay tuned in ya’ll.
