Artist Tip: Artist Tip: I’ve created these drawings with a Wacom Cintiq, (Brushs: Sketching, 6B pencil & Painting, Watercolor) Feel free to use any medium, color, or texture. Just pen and paper will work too. Before diving into your flower drawing journey, it’s essential to gather the necessary supplies. These include quality drawing paper, pen, pencils of varying hardness, erasers, sharpeners, colored pencils, watercolor,s or markers for adding vibrant hues to your creations.🌈

Let’s start with one of the most popular flowers in the world. Start by drawing a small circle for the center of the daisy. Draw elongated oval shapes around the outer circle to form the daisy’s petals. Make sure the petals overlap slightly and vary in size to create depth and dimension. Personally, I don’t like to draw white flowers on white paper, that’s why I always play with the colors. So as you are the artist, feel free to add any details, color, and texture to your beautiful flower.

Drawing lotus can be a relaxing and rewarding experience, especially when you see your beautiful creation come to life on paper.
