The long-awaited spring is approaching, and with it our favorite holiday - March 8. This is International Women's Day. It is celebrated at the very beginning of spring, when snow still lies in some places, icicles hang and even frosts are possible ... But the air already blows in the spring, the sun is shining and the soul is getting warmer. We congratulate our mothers, grandmothers, sisters, friends, classmates. We give them flowers - the first, tender, spring ... also on this day it is customary to give gifts and, of course, postcards. Let's draw a drawing for March 8 in stages and include it in a DIY greeting card. Therefore, such a gift is valuable because it is made with one's own hand.

Stage 1. So, we draw the basis of our image. Two figures, similar to a circle, but not quite round, but rather oval, we will arrange on one straight line, passing obliquely a sheet of paper. A curved line departs from the lower oval, at the top of which we draw two small figures - one looks like an oval, the other like a leaf.

Stage 2. On two oval figures, we begin to draw the curved lines of the future figure “8”. They are curled, each of them looks like a steam room, but is directed in the other direction.

Stage 3. On the borders of the ovals we make the edges of the number "8". We retreat a little from the original lines inward. The number "8" should be depicted as if lying on the plane of the picture.

Stage 4. On the curve line drawn in stage 1 from the lower oval, we draw a spring flower - a tulip: a straight stalk, two acute-angled protruding leaves and the flower itself, consisting of closed petals.

Step 5. Now add more tulips. We draw their flowers just in those little figures from stage 1. These are buds. Stems go down from them and leaves are also visible below.

Stage 6. At the edges of these three tulips, draw two more flowers. They are smaller. The result was a bouquet of five tulips, located behind the number "8".

Step 7. Using the number “8” itself, we will make additional smooth curls of various configurations: patterns, dots, etc. This will then add a certain volume when coloring the figure.

Step 8. Below we add an oval in which there will be an inscription. Draw the little butterflies from above.

Question Description

Soon the holiday is March 8, this day is considered an international women's day. Of course, not all people know the true and historical meaning of this holiday. It all began in the late 1880s, when the female sex began to achieve equal rights with men, first in Europe and then around the world. After that, the attitude towards women has changed, they have become more respected and appreciated in society, their equality has been recognized. It so happened that once the holding of such events by women coincided with a day off, it was March 8th. Therefore, they decided to legalize this date and recognize it as Women's Day. Of course, the legal and political side of this holiday has long been forgotten, but it is still celebrated, at the moment it has taken on a form simply as a day of increased attention and reverence for women. No holiday is complete without solemn remarks, congratulations and holiday posters or postcards. Let's add our share to the women's holiday and decorate it beautifully with posters, or draw a postcard. I will offer you two options for drawing flowers for the Eighth of March, you can do both of them, or choose the one that suits you best.

Step by step solution


I will start, perhaps, first with a more complex version. You and I need to place our future bouquet of flowers on paper so that it is harmonious, so we will make its outlines, draw an oval, flowers will peek out of this “oval”. Then we draw to this oval like a “bottom”; you must agree that now it really looks more like a bucket, these will be the edges of our bouquet, but this is far from all the work on a sketch of the bouquet’s wrapper. When you draw, try not to press on the pencil, so that your strokes can later be covered with paint, or easily be erased with an eraser in case you need it.


  Now, schematically, we will outline the flowers. No, we will not have four flowers in a bouquet, just mimosa and other very small flowers we will not particularly mark. Small, light, white flowers are better not to detail the pencil strongly, as then we will have difficulty to fill the pencil with paints.


  Now let's start drawing the largest and most visible flowers, and these are exactly two daffodils and two tulips.


  This is how the flowers traced look like, we have two branches of mimosa, two tulips, two daffodils and light, white, small flowers looking out of the bouquet on the right side, so the number of flowers we will have is true and congratulatory.


  Now we take the eraser and erase the auxiliary pencil lines so that they do not further damage our poster or postcard.


  Decide on the color of the wrapper of the bouquet and apply it carefully, without touching the flowers. The paint should be diluted on the palette and not applied in a thick consistency. It is advisable that the wrapper was not red tones, since the tulips shown here, we will paint in red.


  Let it dry. When the drying of the wrapper of the bouquet has come, take yellow and paint over the heads of the tulip and the leaves from them. The leaves can be painted over with salad color, as you like more, we are still preparing the basis. No, we will not have yellow leaves or lettuce, our tulips here will not be yellow, just this color is secondary and it is a little in shades, this color is the basis. We paint over the heads of the tulips, as well as the middle in the daffodils, give the color to the mimosa and leave it to dry again.


  When the drying has come, we will take on the scarlet color and begin to draw the petals of our tulip with a wide brush. Look very carefully at the image, pay special attention to the direction of the strokes on the tulip petal, which I began to paint, they go, as if in a slant in the middle of the petal, repelling from each other.


So, we complete the work in scarlet. When you paint over the inside of a tulip, just paint it over without this shading, which I told you about in the previous step, this applies only to the surface of the petal. The yellow color on the tulips should look a little and highlight, especially along the edges. We are waiting for drying to continue working further.


  Take the color of pink speckled and on top of scarlet, we will make about the same strokes as we did before. Just do not need to be zealous and completely hammer the scarlet color, it must be visible, pink must be applied in places. Let's work on the middle of the daffodil, you will need a thin brush and an orange color. We also make the shade on the wrapper of our bouquet a color slightly darker than the color with which we completely painted the bouquet.


  We complete the shade of the wrapper of the bouquet. Let's work on the daffodils again, this time with the petals. Dilute to a faded state with water on the palette, the blue color and closer to the middle of the petal shade it, this must be done on each petal of the daffodil.


  Let us now proceed to the mimosa, look at the left side of the picture, with small dots we will make a border to the mimosa, to each of its "ball". Let's work on the stem and leaves of our flowers, take a dark green, swamp color (green earth, chromium oxide) and write them down.


  Work on each “ball” of mimosa is completed, just look at the stems and leaves of the flowers, as you can see, it’s not pure dark green with us, but the intermediate yellow color is also slightly translucent, I hope now you understand what it is for was used with me.


  Let's draw some greens, here we don’t need an intermediate color, just make the stems of the mimosa. Let's start adding small light flowers on the right side of the bouquet, we will take a thin brush with a blue color.


At this stage of our work, we will give the postcard clarity and darken places where it seems to us not enough shades. As you can see, on the right we have drawn the right amount of small flowers (you can do more), now take blue and circle daffodils for brightness. All of you have probably noticed many times that closer to the stem, on the head of the tulips, black color is clearly visible, in order to give tulips more realism I suggest you do this too. Dilute the black paint on the palette and carefully draw, just do not overdo it with black, it should not look like a black spot on tulips. If you are afraid to spoil, it is better to abandon this idea, your tulips will look great anyway. When the work dries, it can already be considered finished.


  Now I will tell you a more simplified version of drawing a bouquet with flowers. I came up with these flowers myself, with flowers you can do everything your imagination allows you to do. In this paper, watercolor was used for paper, but this is not a prerequisite, a simple thick paper will do, we will not deal with multilayer color blending and mixing. So, we draw a vase, schematically depict it as a rectangle.


  Draw our vase in a rectangle, of course, you can come up with a vase of your own shape.


  We draw three stems and three small circles above them, these circles will be the middle in our colors.


  Erase the auxiliary lines with an eraser carefully. In general, the sketch is completed with a simple pencil, we will do the rest with paints.


  Choose the color of the table on which the vase will stand and the color of the background (wallpaper). I chose sand (ocher) for the background and brown for the table. First painted the top, the background is sand, then the table is brown, now we are waiting for drying.


  When you are sure that everything is dry, take cobalt purple light (depending on who chose which color) and paint the vase with a clear color, again expect drying to continue further work.


  We apply chiaroscuro to the vase, we will do it in the same color as the vase was painted, only the paint should be a little denser consistency. We are waiting for the paint to dry.


  Put a shadow on the table, we will make it the same paint color as we painted the table, the table closer to the background (wallpaper) should be a little darker, but this should not be noticeable, paint this part of the table again.

  When you surround the circles with the petals in the middle, let the paint dry, then take a thin brush and make dashes in the middle of each petal.


Let's draw stems with dark green swamp paint for our flowers.


  With a clean paint of dark green color, we draw leaves with one number of brushes. When the work dries, it will already be considered completed.
