As one of the most “advertised” living things in the world, the Butterflies have a strong presence in our culture. As kids, we read about magical butterflies that help the heroes fight the evil kings. As adults, we learn that they play a major role in keeping the balance.

They are insects and have been around for 55+ million years. Did you know that the butterflies go over four life cycles before spreading their wings and flying away? The egg comes first; the caterpillars follow; and when the pupa fully develops, the wings come out and it turns into a butterfly.

Some Things To Keep In Mind…

These tutorials are only here to guide you. Your drawing does not need to look "identical" to mine.

Start with rough but light pencil strokes that you can work into the shapes you want.

Once you have your rough drawing completed, go over it in a darker stroke for your final drawing.

Add shading and/or color to complete if desired.

Using this technique you will be able to draw anything after some practice... even without following step-by-step tutorials.
