What do you need?

-water
-paintbrush
-a little piece of cloth

Divide the coffee and add more drops of water to make it clearer. You can work with three tones: dark, medium and light

make a simple sketch with pencil

Begin adding the clear shades. You need to visualize where the shadows and lights will be.Use the cloth to remove the excess of water

Add medium and dark shades...
