How to draw a Sunflower

Learn How to draw A Sunflower Quickly & Easily!

Begin with an average-sized circle in the middle and a much bigger one that covers most of the space on the piece of paper (00 min 23 sec). Next, add three huge leaves at the very bottom of the foundation. That’s actually it for the first step in our how to draw a Sunflower tutorial. So, pick darker strokes and/or a marker for the next part.

First of all, go over the small circle with dark strokes and make sure it’s not a smooth shape – try to make it more, let’s say, chaotic (01 min 02 sec). If you’re happy with what you’ve got so far, draw an even smaller circle in the middle and a series of tiny dots all over it (01 min 30 sec). Are you satisfied with the result? Good, then it’s time to get to the main part of the how to draw a Sunflower tutorial – the leaves (01 min 48 sec).

There are more of these than you can count, but they all looks practically the same and won’t cause you any problems. In total, you’ll need eight medium-sized leaves. Don’t make them all identical and try to introduce tiny differences in the size and shape to make the drawing look more realistic. The next step is the bigger leaves that sit next to these ones (04 min 30 sec).

The concept is the same, only this time around, they are “hiding” behind the first line. Keep adding more and more leaves until you cover the whole circle like I did in the video. Once you’re done with that part, you’ll pretty much be done with the how to draw a Sunflower tutorial as well. Take your time with it. The more careful you are, the better the final drawing will look. And don’t forget about the bigger leaves at the bottom (12 min 21 sec).

Some Things To Keep In Mind…

These tutorials are only here to guide you. Your drawing does not need to look "identical" to mine.

Start with rough but light pencil strokes that you can work into the shapes you want.

Once you have your rough drawing completed, go over it in a darker stroke for your final drawing.

Add shading and/or color to complete if desired.

Using this technique you will be able to draw anything after some practice... even without following step-by-step tutorials.
