I’m getting better at drawing out my milk foam pours into the art silhouettes before I start on the chocolate sketching. It’s super tough because I’m not good at visualizing art before I work on it. Usually, I have to do a practice cup, so I can see where every part should land in the …

Initially, I was planning to draw Sailor Mercury, but her eyes came out a little too sharp. So, I transformed her into Sailor Mars instead. Well … she’s a mix of both, really. Obviously, I am a Sailor Moon geek. Coffee: Fratello Coffee – Godfather

I’m beginning a series on the Disney Princesses and I’m starting with Snow White. I’m getting better with drawing with milk foam after it’s been poured.
