motivational cake drawings<\/a>. Doughnuts may not be the most attractive cake in the bakery, but they’re still just as delicious!<\/p>\nThe doughnut in the mirror is intentionally smaller and not a perfect reflection of real life, to reflect how you\u00a0don’t see always see yourself as\u00a0you\u00a0really are.<\/p>\n
When I first drew it, the doughnut looking in the mirror looked sad too, with big,\u00a0watery, tearful eyes.\u00a0But that didn’t reflect the meaning of the drawing. The doughnut knows that physical appearance isn’t the most important thing, so you shouldn’t be disappointed\u00a0looking in the mirror\u00a0–\u00a0even if what the mirror shows isn’t what you’d really like it to.\u00a0It’s what’s inside that counts (delicious strawberry jam!)<\/p>\n
Here’s the rough sketch I started from – it looks like Sumikko Gurashi! I was tempted to keep\u00a0the final drawing in this style\u00a0with sketchy lines and dot eyes, but decided on big-eyed, cute Cakes with Faces trademark style.<\/p>\n
