"Hello, I'm Jacklyn LaFlamme. I'm a professional artist with JacklynLaflamme.com. In this clip I'm going to show you how to draw splashing water. You'll need a sketch book, you'll need some black markers to draw with. We're going to start off with one big raindrop shape as if it was coming down in to the water. Now when it hits the water it's going to create waves. So we're going to just going to take the marker and go around in a circle and create the waves like in a pool of water, just kind of rough waves. Also when it hits the water's going to start to splash up. So we can just big kind of backwards raindrops if you will splashing up, just like that just as if the water was like coming up. And where this water is going to hit the water there's going to be like little splashes. So for this we can just do some little swirlies around where where the big splashes are. So it's almost like doing little mini rain drops coming out. And we can just have them coming around, coming around. Then you can just add a few little kind of round shapes just to balance it out and show where the water would drip. And there you have it, a splash of water. This has been Jacklyn LaFlamme, thank you for watching."
