PRINTABLE PROJECT NOTES

Draw lightly at first so you can erase later.  

This project uses a lot of basic shapes like rectangles squares triangles circles and more.  The tricky part is having everything line up. Use guidelines to keep things level and even. 

Do not be afraid to use a ruler to make your lines straight. 

In my design, there are three windows at the top with a rectangle flower box, there is a rectangle sign, a square store window, a rectangle door with a half-circle window, a triangle umbrella, an oval table cylinder flower pots. The chairs are a combination of thin rectangles. 

To make the letters even on the sign, divide the sign into halves and then quarters then draw the letters in the four spaces. Write each letter then go around it to give it volume. Shade the areas around the letters.

Start the lamp with a guideline down the center then use basic shapes. Use curved lines to show roundness. 

Begin the chairs with a line on the ground for how far down the legs go for the legs nearest the viewer, and use a guideline a little higher for how far down the legs go on the legs farther away. Draw the chairs like simple line shapes and then go around the shapes to give each one fullness. For interest have one behind the other. Use a rectangle for the back of the chair.

Use double lines around the doors and windows. 

Use scribbly choppy lines for the flowers. 

Focus on texture. 

Use short lines in random rows for bricks. 

Use long lines above for the siding of the areas around the windows. 

Use dots for the street. 

Horizontal lines for the door. 

Use shading to give depth and roundness. Don't make the windows solid black, leave some shiny areas. 

Sign and date your picture about 1 inch from the bottom so there is room for a frame.

I hope you draw a masterpiece!

Free How to Draw a Seagull on the Beach Worksheet and Art Lesson

I am glad to share my free how-to-draw a seagull on the beach worksheet and art lesson that you can download and print out for your class or personal enjoyment.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR DONATION!

I have always thought the seagulls were marvelous creatures. They inhabit shores all over the world. Sometimes they are alone, and sometimes they are in a flock. There is something beautiful in how they seem to drift in the sky as they search for food. They are bold, too, and will come close enough to a person to snatch their food.  So it seemed that sooner or later, I had to create a how-to-draw worksheet for the noble seagull.  

If you have problems downloading the image below, click on the HOW TO PRINT tab, I have listed some common issues and possible solutions you can try. You can also download the PDF below if the image file is too problematic.

PRINTABLE NOTES

The setting is as important as the portrait of the seagull so start with the horizon line, just as you would with any landscape picture.  Start your drawing with a loose and free approach, almost as if you are just going to play around with some ideas. Scribble random circles where the huge clouds might be. Don't even try to put them anywhere on purpose; let the design of the clouds be like an accident. We'll come back to them later. 

The seagull is in the foreground so draw it before you do too much with the background. Start the seagull with a teardrop shape sideways, an oval for the head, a rectangle for the neck, and a thin rectangle for the beak. Dont make the legs just straight; make him doing something like walking; it gives the picture interest. 

Draw a few lines across the water for the crashing wave. When waves roll across the beach, they make foam on edge.  Draw a wavey line where you want the foam edge to be.  

Go around the lines of the shapes that you used to start the seagull and make it look more like a seagull, then erase the extra lines.

There are so many different types of seagulls that you dont need to worry about making yours perfect because somewhere there is one just like yours.

Go around the scribbled circles that started the clouds and make the best parts darker, then erase the others, make sure the sunlight is on one side and the shadow is on the other. 

Keep the sea simple. Use lines going right and left for the waves. The waves far away are small and short; the waves become larger up close where they are longer and larger. 

Use a triangle to add a sailboat; this will give a sense of distance and size. 

For the foam of the crashing wave, start with tiny circles, then go around them and erase the extra lines. There will be shadows underneath the foam and under the part where the wave curls over. 

The water of the wave will have a flow over from the top, and a flow out from the bottom uses fine lines to show this. 

Use lines back and forth to shade the dark areas of the foreground water.

The sand is darker and coarser near the bottom; it is finer and lighter near the water. Take your time and use many dots in horizontal rows to give the sand texture.   

Take your time with shading and texture; this is what will make the picture look real.

Free How to Draw Flowers by the Rural Fence Worksheet

Below is a Free How to Draw Flowers by the Rural Fence Worksheet. 

This picture was inspired by something I saw when walking my dog. There was a fence beside the path we were on, and some flowers were growing through the cross pieces of the fence. I took a picture of it with my cell phone and later created some art inspired by the scene. It is a simple and easy project, but it can be very lovely when it is finished.

PRINTABLE NOTES

During the beginning stages draw lightly so you can make erasures and corrections later on. 

The fence starts out as a series of long rectangles. Two are verticle and four are horizontal, they do not need to be perfect. 

Do not draw the fence perfect, give it some crooked and bent parts like something that has been outside for a long time might look. 

Use circles and half-circles to place where the flowers will be in the picture. Some of the flowers are facing out to you and some are facing up, the ones facing up look like half circles. Draw small circles for the center. Put some flowers in front of others.

 

Draw the petals from the center to the outer circle. Use two lines, one for each side. Use a guideline to keep the petals going straight. then erase the extra lines.  

The leaves in the shrubbery below the flowers are like the letter "V" but rounded. 

Use short choppy lines to give the wood a rough texture.

Use the shading technique to give the picture depth. The far trees are a light gray, the distant shrubbery are a darker gray. The darkest areas should be the closest like the side of the post and the underside of the cross pieces. Shade around the leaves and the flowers but leave the flowers and leaves white so they stand out. 

Sign and date your work about an inch from the bottom so there is room for a mat and frame.

I hope this picture turns out beautifully for you.

This how-to-draw worksheet took three days to design and create. I hope you have fun with it. 

YOU MAY COPY THESE LESSON NOTES. 

Draw lightly at first so that you can erase and clean it up later. 

Start by gathering your reference materials like favorite pictures of tulips from cards, magazines, or calendars. I used some photos that I took at a fruit stand beside the road in Pennsylvania USA. 

Use the pictures for ideas and design. 

The bushel is in front of a box. The Box is drawn with parallel lines that form a Parrallegram on the top and sides. But do not worry if it is not perfect it is supposed to look old and worn. 

The bushel is two horizontal ovals and vertical lines that connect the top and bottom ovals. Use a guideline to keep both sides level or else one side will be higher than the other. 

Draw an apple on top of the box, just make it a circle at first. You will come back and finish it later. 

Draw two or three bushes in front and one on the side, it gives the picture interest.  

Use circles to compose the apples, remember to draw them lightly at first. place them randomly and not too orderly.  Do not make them look like a pyramid or too tall, just a few on top of others. Start them as circles. Have some in from of others. Once they are in the right places erase the bottom of the circles if you need to.  

Add details to build up the realism. Draw lines that show the thickness of the edge of the box. Draw a second line around the edge of the bushel to show its thickness  Draw vertical lines for the parts of the bushels. Draw two lines for the top edges of the bushels, and for the band that wraps it.  

Draw verticle lines to indicate the wall behind, draw horizontal lines to give the look of the wood floor. 

Erase the extra lines. 

Determine which side the light is coming in from. Add shadows on the opposite side of the light. So if the light is from the right the shadow will be on the left.  Put shadows inside the box and behind the bushels. Take your time with the shadows since they give it depth and roundness. 

Use choppy lines to give the wood wall and floor texture and character. 

I hope your drawing is a masterpiece!

Free How to Draw a Tulip Garden Art Lesson and Printable Worksheet.

Free how to draw a tulip garden worksheet

Here is a fun and easy drawing lesson that will help the beginner in drawing tulip flowers.  It is not a hard project and is good practice. I tried to make the lesson interesting and took a few risks with the composition. The flowers are not in a neat tidy row, and they are intentionally a little ragged as if they were past their bloom; after all, that is real life, and a picture should tell a story.

LESSON NOTES

BEGINING

Start by gathering your reference materials, like favorite pictures of tulips from cards, magazines, or calendars. Use the pictures for ideas and design. 

In my illustration, I have some tulips taller than others, some are in front,   and some are behind. It all makes it look interesting. You may want to do some rough sketches first to get your ideas right.

Lightly sketch your design. Keep it loose, rough, and quick.  Just some circles for the flowers and lines for the stems and leaves. Keep it light so you can erase parts later.

DEVELOPING FROM

After you have the basic design the way you like it then go over the best lines and erase the ones you do not want.

FLOWERS

The tulip flower looks like a bowl or cup. In our illustration, we are looking down into the flower at an angle. Draw a curved guide-line across the circle that you drew for the flower. The guideline is the edge fo the nearer leaves of the flower's cup shape. 

Divide the cup shape into petals by drawing two or three lines down from the guideline and from the back edge of the circle.   

The edges of the flower is a little jagged so draw sawtooth-like lines on the edge of the guide-line and the top circle line. 

Erase the extra lines.  

SHADING

Shading may be the most important part of the picture. Shadow is determined by the direction of the light source. If the light is coming from the left the shadow will be on the right. I suggest that you do all the shadow at once at the end. Work the shading over the whole picture not one area at a time, because if you start at one spot and work out it may not look even. There are shadows in shadows and some shadows near the edge are lighter and some shadows farther from the light may be darker. 

Use shade to separate flowers into those in front and those behind. 

Be sure to sign and date your work about an inch or so from the bottom so there is room for a frame.

I HOPE YOU DRAW A MASTERPIECE!

BEGINNING
Start out by drawing lightly at first so you can erase later.
Keep it simple at the beginning.
Use a basic stick figure to work out the pose.
Use a guideline across the shoulders to keep them level. Use a guideline across the waist to keep the elbows on the level. 

DEVELOPING
After you have the pose the way you want it, then draw around the stick figure to give the body its shape and then draw the clothes over that.

The head is an oval. Do not draw the hat until you get the features in the right place. Use three guidelines to help place the eyes, nose, and mouth. The first guideline is halfway across. The second is halfway down from the first, the third is halfway down from the second.  

Draw the hat through the top of the head, not above it. 

DETAILS
Keep the hands simple. Draw around the stick figure fingers. They are gloves,     so they can be fat and shapeless mittens.

FACE

Go over the oval shape of the face to give sharpness to the jaw and cheeks. Keep the face simple. The nose is like a letter "V," The mouth is a few lines. The eyes are two arches with dark half-circles for the pupil. Make the hat uneven like it is old and beaten up; this will give the drawing character. 

Erase the extra lines and rework the lines you like. It may be a good idea to trace the design onto another paper to finish the project. Many artists do this, sometimes two or more times on a project. 

FINISH

Color or shade the line drawing after you finish. When you color or shade in the picture, look for areas that you can leave white for contrast. Be careful to have some very dark areas and some very light areas, and some medium-dark areas.

I hope you create a masterpiece!

Thank You

BEGINNING

Keep it simple at the beginning.
It is ok to use tracing paper and trace it over a few times until you have it right.
Use a basic stick figure to work out the pose.
This project has two figures one is carrying another. You may have to practice and draw them separately at first then combine them into one composition.


DEVELOPING
After you have the pose the way you want it then draw around the stick figure to give the body its shape and then draw the clothes over.

DETAILS
Keep the hands simple, think of drawing them like mittens. Remember, thumbs point inward on hands facing down and thumbs point outward on hands pointing up.

Keep the face simple, the nose and eyebrow form a letter "S" Use a short line for the upper lip and a shorter line for the lower lip. The eyes are two slightly curving lines since the wounded man is not awake and the hero is watching his step.

Color or shade the line drawing after you finish.

Do not forget to put in the background like a battle scene or a dead monster. Draw the ground around the hero's feet so he doesn't look like he is floating.

YOU MAY PRINT THE ART PROJECT NOTES BELOW.

BEGINNING
Start out by drawing lightly at first so you can erase later.
Use basic shapes to work out the design. The largest shape will be a teardrop shape, but it is sideways. Draw long ovals for the front flipper and ovals for the head and rear feet.  It does not need to be perfect.

DEVELOPING
The front flipper has a curve like a knee going front that makes it look like a backward number "7." The flipper is not straight but has curves going back and forth on the front edge and on the back edge.

Draw the top of the shell in the shape of a long narrow oval with a point at the back.

The top shell, head, and flipper have a pattern of scales. Lightly draw a grid of lines that make box shapes on the flipper and on the shell, but don't make it perfect; let some be different sizes and irregular shapes. Draw around the inside of the shapes of the grid, so it looks like boxes inside a net. Erase the grid, leaving spaces between the boxes (remember I said to draw it lightly so you can erase). The bottom of the shell has simple lines like for the scales and is plainer than the top.
Erase all the extra lines and go over the lines you want to keep.

SHADING
Put shadows underneath the turtle. Use shading to make the far flipper look darker; use shading under the neck and chin. The top of the shell is much darker than the bottom but be careful that you do not lose the pattern.

Draw wavy lines for the water effect.

Use the basic shape of a triangle to start; it does not need to be perfect. Add an arch like a rainbow over the large triangle. Make the arch lopsided so it is higher at the top of the triangle than at the bottom. Draw a small triangle centered on the back end of the large triangle.

DEVELOPING
Draw several curves going inward on the arch for the wrinkled edges. Draw three or four guidelines on the small triangle to help keep the spurs even and in line. Across the guidelines, draw bumps for the spurs of the shell. Draw the two larger spurs on the bottom like a lopsided letter "V" pointing down and back. The bottom edge curves upward a little and is wavey.

CLEAN UP THE PICTURE
Erase all the extra lines and go over the lines you want to keep.

SHADING
Put a shadow underneath the conch shell. Put shadows on the edges to give the shell roundness. Use shadow to define the wrinkles.
