Spring flowers are sprouting everywhere, just in time to have a snowstorm in the forecast for this weekend! That could make for some beautiful Vermont landscape drawings, paintings or photography! It is also Mother's Day on Sunday.
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to draw a flower with radial symmetry. Who can tell me what radial symmetry means? Feel free to color it in however you choose and with whatever materials you have handy. Older students can add more details and add shading. This could make a wonderful gift to someone special!
Don't forget to turn in your Aloha Foundation 'Joy' artwork!
Have a great weekend!
RADIAL FLOWER DRAWING GUIDE
1. Write your name on the back of your paper then turn over paper.
2. Trace or draw a circle shape in the center of your paper.
3. Draw a curved line to create one part of the petal.
4. Add a curved line to the other side to complete the petal.
5. Continue repeating this shape all the way around your circle. Turn your paper as you go!
6. When there are empty spaces, draw petals behind the first row
7. Add lines for details
8. Paint or color center of the flower
9. Paint or color petals. Try using more than one more color.
10. Paint or color background a different color than the flower. Can you cover all the white paper?
