How to draw flowers in stages? Chrysanthemums: with a pencil

We learn to draw chrysanthemum (flower and bouquet) in stages.

It is worth noting that drawing chrysanthemum is quite difficult, but interesting. Therefore, if you can’t draw a flower the first time - do not despair! In this case, patience and work will help to achieve perfection.

How to draw a chrysanthemum in stages?

Before proceeding with drawing, look carefully at the flower: it consists of geometric shapes that we know well.

As a rule, this

• circle or oval - for the image of a flower / bud and core
• several smooth uneven lines - for the stem
• several elongated ovals - for leaves

Option 1

1. Using simple geometric shapes, draw a schematic image of a flower

2. Fill the space of the oval with thin and long petals. Do not try to draw all the petals perfectly evenly, because each flower is unique. Draw the contour of the leaves. He must have a smooth line and create a beautiful edge

3. Color the picture

Do not forget: in nature there is no absolutely pure color. When painting a pattern, use halftones, shades, color transitions

Option 2

If you have successfully coped with the previous task, try to draw a more complex drawing.

1. And in this case, it all starts with two ovals (large and small) - for a flower head and two parallel lines - for the stem

2. Draw the first petals. Move from the middle in a circle. The petals of the core should be relatively short, rare, curved to the center. In the intervals, finish the longer petals. They can be made straight

3. Color the flower

How to draw a bouquet of chrysanthemums?

1. Start work by creating a scheme-strip. In the center of the sheet, draw crossing circles (one - a little more than the other). Do not forget to sketch plant leaves

2. In the center of each circle, put a conditional point and, focusing on it, spend a few more internal circles. On the leaves, draw a central line that determines the cuttings of a sheet of chrysanthemum

3. From the central point, draw radii that will help create the outer contour of the flower. Remember the contour of the leaves. He must have a smooth line and create a beautiful edge

4. Start drawing the contour of the inflorescence. In the work, focus on auxiliary lines

5. The next stage is the most time -consuming one. Focusing on the contours of flowers and cells created by the intersection of circles and radii, draw each petal. Work from the center to the contour. In the course of work, carefully erase auxiliary lines with an eraser that is no longer needed

6. Color the bouquet

Chrysanthemums amaze with diversity. However, in floristry there are certain meanings for each color of this flower:

• yellow - wealth, influence
• white is innocence
• blue and other blue shades - fun
• red tones - deep feelings

Remember this by painting your drawing
