Hello, welcome to this part of the site! Here\u2019s a step-by-step tutorial on illustrating daisies! Just read the comments below each image, copy the parts highlighted in green (but don\u2019t you do it in green, unless you want a green flower!) Then colour it in at the end - you should end up with something similar to what I have.<\/strong><\/p>

(The daisy here is based on a photo I took, but might not be shown a hundred percent realistically. I didn\u2019t \u201cdraw\u201d it, but illustrated it on design software, though this tutorial intends to show you how to draw something very similar to it).<\/p>

Post is an updated\/edited version - this sentence was written on 7th July 2025.<\/em><\/p>

What are we aiming for?<\/h2>

\"Illustration<\/p>

Quite a startlingly big image of a daisy flower! (You don\u2019t normally see them this close up, do you? Or maybe you\u2019re viewing this on a tiny monitor). This one seemed to have two layers of petals. I get the impression that for a daisy, you want to draw lots of petals.<\/p>

Step 1 - Draw the central bit<\/h2>

\"Illustration<\/p>

I know, very professional language there.<\/p>

Step 2 - Draw some petals<\/h2>

\"Illustration<\/p>

These are more or less the top ones. (It was quite hard to tell!)<\/p>

Step 3 - Add in the other petals<\/h2>

\"Illustration<\/p>

Look around the edges of the flower.<\/p>

Step 4 - Draw the bits in the middle<\/h2>

\"Illustration<\/p>

I wouldn\u2019t recommend copying me here exactly - it would take a lot of detail (I had the luxury of copying circular-ish shapes to fill it up). Draw lots of circles in the centre - even better, if you squish them around the edges a bit, roughly in parallel to the edge of the big circle (especially more squished ones on the upper section, speaking from a bird\u2019s eye view perspective) to give the impression of a domed-yet-slightly-cone-like structure in the middle.<\/p>

<\/p>

Step 5 - Colour it in<\/h2>

\"Illustration<\/p>

You might have seen that I used some grey for shading purposes. Up to you! After that, you should hopefully have something similar to the image above!<\/p>
