To do this, first, draw the objects using the PEN TOOL (you can also use the freehand tool) and SHAPE TOOL.

Next, fill the objects with color (just like the image below) using the color pallete or fill tool.

Lastly, to create a realistic look, use the INTERACTIVE MESH FILL TOOL. With this, you can create multiple omni-directional color over a single object using a customizable grid  structure.  Mesh fills can be applied to any vector object not already applied with some other effect.

 Applying mesh fill can be the hardest yet the most exciting part so try to enjoy it.
