How to draw food realistic

Let’s draw something tasty. How about a wholesome and satisfying dish that everyone knows? We are talking about hot delicious pita with vegetable filling. This drawing guide is quite simple, but in the end, we have to get a pretty realistic food. So let’s start this lesson and find out how to draw food step by step.

Step 1

First, draw the contours of pita. The lines do not have to be perfectly even in this step. However, you should pay attention to the perspective. One half of the pita looks much larger than the other half of the pita because of the angle.

Step 2

Let’s draw a smooth edge of pita. This edge lies on top of the rest of the pita as a blanket. In front you can see a large hole in which the filling is located. In our version, the filling is quite voluminous. You can draw smaller fillings.

Step 3

In this step we will draw the final contours of pita bread and fillings. We remove the extra lines so that the filling does not look transparent. If you want to simplify the drawing, you can just draw a sausage and a couple of lettuce leaves.

Step 4

Now we can work with shadows. At first we need to find the light source. In our example, the light comes from the upper left side, and we need to add hatching to the right side of the pita. Use light strokes for hatching. And do not forget to add the cast shadow to the surface.
