How to Draw a Daisy

11 steps · Medium · about 8 min

Draw a daisy in 11 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.

Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: round middle.

Print

  1. Step 1: Round middle

    Near the top of your paper draw a small round circle, as big as a plum.

  2. Step 2: Eyes and a smile

    Draw 2 big egg eyes with black dots. Under them draw a wide U smile from eye to eye.

  3. Step 3: Four petals

    Start on the circle near the top. Draw a long petal up and back to the circle. Do 3 more.

    Tip Each petal is one and a half times as long as the middle.

  4. Step 4: Fill the gaps

    In each gap draw 2 more petals, starting on the circle and coming back to it. 12 in all.

  5. Step 5: Stem

    Start at the bottom petal tip. Draw 2 gently bending lines down to near the bottom, a little wider there.

  6. Step 6: Two leaves

    A hand below the petals draw a fat leaf on the left of the stem. Draw another on the right.

  7. Step 7: Leaf veins

    Start on the stem in the middle of each leaf. Draw one curved vein line out, stopping before the tip.

  8. Step 8: Ground and grass

    Start near the left edge. Draw a soft ground line through the stem bottom to the right edge. Add grass.

  9. Step 9: White petals

    Colour all 12 petals with a white crayon, so they stand out from the paper.

  10. Step 10: Yellow middle, pink cheeks

    Colour the middle yellow around the eyes and cheeks, then colour the cheeks pink. Keep the eyes white.

  11. Step 11: Green stem and leaves

    Colour the stem and leaves green. Go over your lines.
