INTRODUCTION
I’ve always loved nature. When I was a child, I used to spend hours and hours looking at flowers,
plants, and insects. I had a notebook where I drew pictures and took notes of my explorations.
Over the years I grew up and had new responsibilities, so I stopped having that beautiful contact
with nature. As a way of remembrance and longing, I have created this book on how to draw
flowers. I hope can help you with your drawing adventure.

You will find 40 realistic drawing projects of different kinds of flowers, such as roses, tulips,
orchids, sunflowers, daisies, and many more. With this guide you will learn to draw them in only
four steps.
Each flower comes with valuable information like flower color, plant type, height, and other
properties. You also have a practice page with a drawing grid to facilitate your drawing.
In addition, at the end of this book, you will find six bonus
drawing projects of leaves.
RECOMMENDED SUPPLIES
Here are some basic tools and materials needed to get started:
- HB pencils (middle-ground pencils, not too hard not too soft)
- 2-6B pencils (softer pencils)
- Eraser
- Smooth paper
- Pencil sharpener

INSTRUCTIONS
Each drawing project has four steps with a drawing grid. This grid will help you with the
dimension of the drawing.

Before you begin to draw, do some free-flowing drawing for warm-up. Remember, nature and
flowers are not perfect, so your drawing does not be need to be the same as the step-by-step guide.
STEP BY STEP
Here you have a quick explanation of each step.
Step 1:
Draw basic shapes (guidelines). It is only for the dimension of the drawing. Then you will erase
these lines, so use an HB pencil

Step 2:
Start drawing the final lines, start from the center to the sides. You should use 2B or 4B pencils.
Step 3:
Complete the drawing. Continue with 2B or 4B pencils. Now you can erase the guidelines of step
1.

Step 4:
Add the details of petals and leaves. You can also add shades if you want a more realistic look.
Sharpen your pencil for better work.

Finally, practice on a new paper without the drawing grid. You can color your drawing, there is
information about the colors of each flower.
