🥱 Tiredness
When you're tired, you want to lie down. To draw a tired person, I start with the head. The head is lying on its side, so the body is slightly shifted relative to it. One shoulder is right near the edge, and the other is a bit further away. Then the arms go from the shoulder under the head. A tired face with closed eyes completes the picture. -

Inktober

🍔 Burger
How to draw a burger depends on the ingredients. A good burger should have something moisture, salty, and filling inside. It's better to draw a burger from top to bottom because in the drawing, the upper elements overlap the lower ones. It's better to cook from bottom to top. On top is a round bun, underneath are pickles for moisture, then any meat of your choice covered with cheese for satiety. We'll put lettuce under the patty to prevent the juice from soaking the bottom bun. That's the burger we've got. -

🎯 Goal
An obvious metaphor for a goal is a target. Less obvious metaphors are more interesting, but if you need to draw something quickly during a presentation, obvious metaphors are always at hand. A target has a bullseye - a point in the very center and rings around it. Usually, the closer the ring is to the bullseye, the better the result. The center of the target is called the bullseye because archers used to practice shooting at bull skulls, and hitting the skull's eye was the most challenging task. In a black and white target, white and black rings alternate. In a colored one, you can also add red rings. -

🍄🟫 Mushroom
The largest living creature on the planet is a mushroom weighing 600 tons. Mushrooms have saved millions of people from death. In the game "The Last of Us," mushrooms caused a zombie apocalypse. However, all this knowledge won't help us draw the most ordinary mushroom. To draw the most ordinary mushroom, you need to start with the stem. Then cover the stem with a cap so that the top of the stem is hidden under the cap. All that's left is to draw gills on the underside of the cap and add details to taste. -

⚖️ Scales
Scales can be used as a metaphor for comparing different options. Simple scales consist of a heavy platform, above which a beam hangs freely on a stand. At the ends of the beam are two pans. These scales allow you to determine only which pan has the heavier load. To use them to find out the weight, you need to put what needs to be weighed on one pan, and on the other - enough weights to balance the scales, after which you add up the weights of all the weights used.
