Welcome spring with vibrant colors and bring joy to your home by drawing your favorite spring flowers. Whether you're a budding artist or an experienced drawer, this spring flowers drawing tutorial will guide you step by step to create beautiful blooms. Let's dive into this delightful season and bring some of its magic into your art!
Before we begin, gather your drawing supplies: a pencil, eraser, paper, and colorful art markers or crayons. Now, let's get started with three of spring's most beloved flowers: the daisy, tulip, and sunflower. Happy drawing!
Drawing Daisies
The daisy is a symbol of simplicity and joy, perfect for kicking off our spring floral journey. Let's learn to draw a daisy in just a few easy steps.
Sketch a small circle for the daisy's center. Then, around this circle, draw 12-14 petals, graduating in size from smallest at the top to largest at the bottom. Now, draw a circular stem, adding tiny leaves along its length. To complete your daisy, fill in the center with yellow and color the petals white.
Daisy Variations
For a fuller daisy, draw more petals, increasing their size as you move outwards. You can also create a 'pompom' daisy by drawing closely-spaced, overlapping petals. To make a 'technicolor' daisy, use colorful petals and a contrasting center color.
Drawing Tulips
The tulip's striking silhouette and vibrant colors make it a dream subject for artists. Let's learn to draw a classic tulip in four simple steps.
Start by drawing an oval for the tulip's base. Then, create the petal shape by drawing a curved 'C' shape extending from the oval. Repeat this step on the other side, and you'll have a simple tulip shape. Add a stem, leaves, and details to complete your tulip.
Tulip Styles
For a 'cupped' tulip, draw petals that curve inwards, creating a 'pinched' effect. To create a 'Turkish' tulip, draw elongated petals that flare out at the ends. To draw a 'water lily' tulip, create soft, rounded petals that seem to float on the surface.
Drawing Sunflowers
The sunflower's grand presence and warm colors make it a stunning subject for your spring drawing collection. Let's learn to draw a classic sunflower using a simple petal dissection method.
Start by sketching a large circle for the sunflower's face. Divide the circle into eight equal sections with lines. Then, draw petals along these lines, use a spiral motion to create the sunflower's center seeds, and add a stem and leaves to complete the flower.
Sunflower Variations
For a 'fluffy' sunflower, draw more petals, layering them to create a full, rounded effect. To create a 'wild' sunflower, draw irregular petal shapes and a twisted stem. To draw a 'social' sunflower, add many smaller flowers along the sunflower's stem.
As you finish your beautiful spring flowers, take a moment to admire your artwork. The joy of creating something new is a celebration in itself. Happy spring drawing!
