A Step-by-Step Guide to Drawing a Beautiful Sunflower

There are many ways in which sunflowers are stunning. Seeing one makes me feel happy and content. Here, I'll show you how to sketch a sunflower using a pencil and paper. There are many procedures to follow; please do so carefully. You should be able to follow along with the instructions and the provided images.

To Begin: 1.

Begin by sketching the cluster of circles that represent the sunflower seeds. Where the petals should be resting is occupied by a round, brownish object. To begin, sketch a circle.

Supplement the Main Body with Additional Information

Try to make the core seem more grounded in reality. Sunflower seeds have a furry quality; to convey this, draw a few lines across them.

Third, give it more nuance.

Add dimension to the seed by shading the center with thicker, darker lines. The interior is typically much darker than the exterior.

Boost the Flower Power by Adding Petals!

Let's move on to the petals, the cherry on top. This is the most time-consuming and challenging part of the process; it certainly was for me when I began.

5. Finish the outer ring of petals

Remember to draw the first layer of petals in a counterclockwise motion around the seed cluster.

Step 6: Create the Following Flower Petal

The second set of petals should be drawn immediately after the first. Close inspection of a sunflower reveals an additional set of petals along its back. This only serves to amplify the flower's size, beauty, and prominence.

7. Doodle a Root

Start the stem below the lowest petal and work your way up. Simple enough, right?

8 – A Leaf Drawing

Dot the stem with leaves in various places. When it comes to leaves, I find symmetry to be dull and unnatural. Try something new There is no requirement for uniformity or proximity between the leaves.

Extra Information #9:

In the final two stages, we'll focus on the leaves. I have given each leaf its own midrib, as you can see.

Veins of leaves should be added in step 10.

Finally, give the leaves some veins. This will make your leaves look even more realistic. Then and only then are you finished. For maximum effect, I suggest you add some color to your sunflower. Please accept my apologies if this tutorial was too long or confusing.

To Your Success in Drawing

How did you fare? Though drawing a sunflower can be challenging at times, this tutorial should serve as a good starting point for novice artists. Do what you will with your ideas and findings, but do feel free to share them.

On April 24th, 2020, in Austin:

The petals were a pain, but otherwise it was fine.

blast off on the 22nd of April, 2020:

I tried using it to paint a sunflower, and while the results aren't perfect (my seed crown is too big, for example, and the petals could be larger), I'm satisfied with how it turned out overall.

Exciting news for the 18th of April, 2020:

It came out alright, though I had trouble with the finer details of the seed.

Stunning layout, if I do say so myself.

Whatever your name is, burst, you're not contributing because, well, if it didn't help, then you obviously have no idea how to draw, and everyone says it turned out great. PERIOD.

Though challenging, the end result is well worth the effort.

On November 4, 2019, on Terra:

I love the look of it on the computer, but the coloring, shading, and other elements make it difficult to replicate in traditional media. Could you possibly create a paper version of this? My school has a strict policy against using electronic drawing tools, but here I am. lol

That's a neat flower, and I just finished making it.

Thank goodness you find it enjoyable. Sometimes I use colored pencils and other times I use Photoshop to add color to the drawings.

TNSArina on October 27, 2012:

Sunflowers are one of my favorite flowers. Excellent Guide. Your use of shading and coloring is superb, too. Is there a method you could share for that?
