PRINTABLE LESSON NOTES
The four-leaf clover is considered lucky and reminds you of St. Patrick, Ireland, good luck, and the Christian cross. It is not hard to draw a lovely four-leaf clover or even a small field of them. Try this lesson and decorate greeting cards, posters, and reports with them.
Start with a loose drawing of a square standing at an angle on one of its corners. The square shape does not need to be perfect. It is like a map or guideline. Divide the square into triangles by drawing lines through the square; these lines should intersect at the middle and themselves be like a long letter "V" at the corners; it may help at this point to erase the corners to maintain focus.

Round off the corners of the four triangles and give the outside of each a slight heart shape. A genuine four-leafed clover will have one leaf, the fourth, smaller than the other three, so if you mess up and they are not even or perfect in size, don't worry- you may have just made it more realistic! Erase any extra lines and color with a pencil or marker.
Add the stem and the grassy leaves with some sweeping straight lines.

| Illustration for How To Draw A Four Leaf Clover |
My Illustration above was drawn using the lesson plan described at the top. Here I went over the drawings of the 4 leaf clovers with a green sharpie and then colored the Illustration with yellow and green. I used layers of colored pencils to give interest. The shadows were done with red to darken the green. The highlights were done with yellow.
