PROJECT NOTES YOU MAY PRINT


BEGINNINGS
Start with the flowers. In our example, there is one that is facing the viewer and two that are viewed from the side. Begin with basic shapes. Draw lightly so you can erase later. The flower facing the viewer is a circle, but the ones that are viewed from the side are a half-circle. The center of the one facing the viewer is another circle, but the center of the ones that are viewed from the side is more oval.

THE FLOWER
There are about 13 petals on the Black-Eyed Susan. Draw each one as two lines going from the center to meet at the outside of the circle on the one facing the viewer or the bottom of the oval for the ones viewed on the side.

DEVELOPING THE FORM
The stems start together at the ground and are two lines that are slightly wider apart at the bottom and gradually come closer together at the top. The leaves are bigger at the bottom and thinner at the top. They weave in and out behind and in front of the stems. The leaves are spear-shaped.

DETAILS
Add shadows to give depth and shading to give roundness. The center has bumps that are dark. Give texture to the soil.
