PRINTABLE LESSON NOTES
The iris flower is a little random so we develop the composition loosely with a scribbling technique then go over the lines to clarify the drawing.
Start by scribbling lightly so you can erase it later. Begin with a guideline up and down and another going across it vertically near the top to keep things even.
Lightly draw a large egg-shaped circle at the top where the two guidelines cross. At the center of the cross draw the first down-pointing petal, it is shaped like an upside-down teardrop. On both sides of the flower draw, the downturned petals. Above that draw an oval on the guideline going up and down. Around the oval draw a circle these form the basis of the petals.
Scribble in the stem and blade-like leaves.
On the petals add folds and wrinkles by scribbling random circles and lines. Work the wrinkles into the edges so the shape is irregular.
Look at the best lines and go over them to make them stronger, broader and darker.
Erase any extra lines.
The iris can be any color but most often it is violet.
